Lepsiushaus, Biographical museum in Potsdam, Germany
The Lepsiushaus occupies a restored historical building with a barrel-vaulted cellar, located at Große Weinmeisterstraße 45 in the Pfingstberg Hill district of Potsdam.
Originally constructed as a wine master's house in 1772, the building later became the residence of Johannes Lepsius, a German theologian who documented Armenian experiences from 1908 to 1926.
The museum functions as a research center for genocide studies, offering exhibitions, literature, and educational materials focused on historical documentation and social awareness.
Visitors can access the museum by taking tram lines 92 or 96 from Potsdam Central Station to Puschkinallee stop, followed by a short walk to the location.
A marble sculpture titled Civil Courage stands in the museum's park, symbolizing the commitment to human rights advocacy and historical documentation.
