The Srebrenica-Potočari Memorial Centre stands at Potočari, a few kilometres north of Srebrenica, in memory of the more than eight thousand Bosniak men and boys killed in the genocide of July 1995. Its museum is housed in the former battery factory that served as the base of the UN peacekeepers, where thousands of people sought protection in those days. The exhibitions tell the story of the enclave and of individual victims through their belongings, photographs and testimony. The memorial cemetery lies across the road, and every year on 11 July thousands gather here for the commemoration and the burial of newly identified victims. Visitors are welcome throughout the year.
