  • Immerse yourself in Vietnam's poignant past at the War Remnants Museum, a must-see destination in Ho Chi Minh City and one of the most visited museums in Asia.
  • The War Remnants Museum is a powerful, if controversial, experience. Its unapologetically propagandist nature and selective focus on the Vietnam War—ignoring conflicts with China and Cambodia—prompt reflection on the role museums play in shaping historical narratives, both in Vietnam and globally.
  • Explore the museum's vast collection of over 20,000 artifacts, documents, exhibits, and films, thoughtfully presented across eight thematic exhibitions both indoors and outdoors.

What to expect

Founded on September 4, 1975, The War Remnants Museum is a member of the International Network of Museums for Peace (INMP) and the International Council of Museums (ICOM).

It is the unique museum in Vietnam to systematically study, collect, conserve and display exhibits on war crimes and consequences inflicted on the Vietnamese people by foreign aggressive forces. Simultaneously, the Museum appeals to everybody to oppose unjust wars, preserve global peace, promote friendship and solidarity among nations.

The Museum is endowed with 9 permanent thematic exhibitions and various special collections. All year round, a wide range of activities are organized, including conferences, meetings with war witnesses, temporary and itinerant exhibitions. With nearly one million domestic and international visitors per year, The War Remnants Museum is one of Ho Chi Minh City's most enticing cultural and tourist sites.
