Museum of Victims of Political Repression

The Museum of Victims of Political Repression displays materials from the Soviet period between 1937 and 1953. The collections include documents, photographs, personal belongings, and scale models of concentration camps from that era.

The institution was established in 2002 and stands near mass graves discovered during construction of the Tashkent TV Tower. These locations mark sites where mass trials and executions took place during the Soviet period.

The memorial tells the stories of religious leaders, writers, and scientists who were targeted during this period. Visitors can see how their lives and contributions are documented through photographs and personal items on display.

The museum is open on most weekdays and allows visitors to explore the exhibits at their own pace. It is best to arrive in the morning and plan to spend a couple of hours to fully experience all the displays.

Excavations beneath this place have uncovered numerous artifacts and remains from the period of mass trials. These findings are carefully preserved and help document the past in tangible ways.
