The museum is the once prison that contained many people who were subsequently killed. Once a school, the museum offers a humbling account of the genocide. You can walk in the torture rooms and cells, and speak with some of the still living survivors of the tragic era. Highly recommend a tour guide to take you around this site and the Killing Fields to get the full picture. There are a couple of survivors that will share their story with you about how they survived. Buy their books or souvenirs to help support them.

Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum or Tuol Sleng as it is often called, was transformed from a school into a prison for interrogation, torture and murder of accused Khmer Rouge prisoners. It is believed that over the course of a few years between 1975 and 1979, no less than ten thousand people died there. Although it is not a prison today, to commemorate the victims of that event, the current Cambodian government has turned Tuol Sleng into a museum to tell stories and teach lessons from the brutal past.
