Guatemala Holocaust Museum — Attraction in Guatemala City

The guide did a good job in explaining the narrative, but I'm removing a point because the classic holocaust narrative needs to be updated on what the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians. The hypocrisy is getting blatantly obvious when they omit this one genocide that they themselves are currently committing in Gaza. I also mentioned that they could include more information on the genocide that happened in Guatemala in the early 80s which is more relevant to the country rather than only focusing on what happened in Europe. There should be a permanent exhibition on what the mayans went through rather than just having something in March (for womens day), etc. Also, I stuck around to watch the featured film the same evening called "where is Anne Frank?" I wasn't sure what to expect, it turned out to be a piece of animated magic realism about herself looking for her missing diary. It was light and somewhat interesting but it started to rain and because there were no subtitles, it was really difficult to understand, which was a great pity. The coffee and biscuits offered were greatly appreciated, however. Overall, coming to this memorial was a good experience, completely free of charge, and an informative reminder on what happened after ww2, but very, very one-sided and outdated,...

Very much worth visiting: Small but well done museum on the Holocaust / Shoah in Europe during WWII, apparently the only one in Central America.

They give a 30 minute guided tour, then leave you free to revisit it by yourself. Was in Spanish as a Guatemalan couple arrived at same time as me, otherwise I think they would have offered it in English for me. But the guide, Benjamin, kindly spoke in Spanish slow enough that I could understand and translated when I didn't understand.

Free to visit.

Door is closed, you need to ring the bell.

Maybe worth calling ahead to check they're open when you want to go, not sure opening times given by Google Maps...

Small, simple, free overview of the holocaust exclusively in Spanish. They had a guide with limited english help explain. Whole exhibit is maybe 6 rooms for 30 minutes. Beautiful memorial artwork at the end. Worth a visit either way but nothing new if you have been to a holocaust...
