Korean Revolution Museum

Korean Revolution Museum, National museum in central Pyongyang, North Korea.

The Korean Revolution Museum stands in central Pyongyang on Mansu Hill by the Taedong River, its rear façade facing the Mansu Hill Grand Monument and its side adjoining the Mansudae Assembly Hall. Its 90 exhibition rooms cover the period from the 1860s to the present, and the complex covers 240,000 square metres. A floor was added in the 2011–2012 renovations, and a new exhibition hall opened in 2022.

Founded on 1 August 1948, the museum covers Korean history from the 1860s to the present, including the anti-Japanese partisan struggle, the founding of the DPRK in September 1948, the Korean War and the socialist construction period. It reopened on 30 March 2017 after renovations, two days after Kim Jong Un inspected the site.

The museum's 90 rooms trace the anti-Japanese partisan struggle, the Korean War and socialist construction, with photographs and panels on Kim Il Sung and his associates. Its back façade faces the Mansu Hill Grand Monument, whose bronze statues of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il stand in front of the museum. A new exhibition hall opened in 2022 for the 10th anniversary of Kim Jong Un's rise to power.

This building is located near Mansu Hill Monument and is accessible for organized visits. It is recommended to arrange your visit in advance with a guide to fully experience the exhibitions.

The museum preserves personal items closely connected to the nation's founding history. These objects rank among the most valued and heavily protected items in its collection.
