On May 30, a delegation led by Markus Rinderspacher, Vice President of the Bavarian State Parliament (Landtag), visited the Armenian Genocide Memorial.
The guests were welcomed by Lusine Abrahamyan, Deputy Director of the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute for Museum Affairs. She accompanied the delegation to the Memorial, presenting the history of its creation. The Deputy Director also spoke about the three khachkars (cross-stones) placed on the grounds of Tsitsernakaberd in memory of the Armenians killed in the massacres organized by the Azerbaijani government at the end of the last century in Sumgait, Kirovabad (Gandzak), and Baku, as well as the five freedom fighters buried in front of the Wall of Remembrance during the Artsakh Liberation War, highlighting the connection between these events and the Armenian Genocide.
Members of the delegation from Germany laid flowers at the Eternal Fire and observed a moment of silence in memory of the innocent martyrs of the Armenian Genocide. They then toured the Armenian Genocide Museum, where they were introduced to both the permanent and temporary exhibitions. Following the visit, Mr. Markus Rinderspacher left a note in the Honorary Guest Book.
