The History of our Museum
Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum is the memorial site of "Security Office 21" (S-21) of Democratic Kampuchea (also known as the Khmer Rouge regime) and located in what was then the abandoned city of Phnom Penh, whose citizens had been evacuated on 17. April 1975.
S-21 served as the central hub of a vast prison system throughout the country and was used throughout the Khmer Rouge period as a secret facility for the detention, interrogation, torture and extermination of those deemed “political enemies” of the regime. Whole families were detained at the center. Over 15.000 prisoners were held at S-21 and later brought to the Killing Fields.
After the end of Khmer Rouge regime, the museum was built in the walls of S-21 to always remember the victims and the crimes which have been done to Cambodian society.
