Museum of Memory and Tolerance, Human rights museum in Cuauhtémoc, Mexico.
The Museum of Memory and Tolerance is a building in Cuauhtémoc focused on human rights and historical injustices. The exhibition spans several floors and presents photographs, textiles, and interactive stations.
The institution opened in 2010 as an educational center documenting genocides and major crimes against humanity. Its founding aimed to prevent future repetitions through education.
The name combines remembering victims with the practice of tolerance, which visitors encounter through personal stories and testimonies. Exhibition rooms display objects and documents from people who survived persecution or worked for justice.
The institution opens from Tuesday to Friday between 9 AM and 6 PM, with hours extended to 7 PM on weekends. The exhibition covers multiple floors and requires a few hours for a full tour.
Specialized rooms offer virtual reality that recreates historical events and gives visitors deeper understanding of human rights violations. This technology allows direct experience of places and situations that are otherwise hard to access.
