Museo de la Memoria

Museo de la Memoria (MUME) is a museum in Montevideo, Uruguay dedicated to the memory of those or died or were "disappeared" during the Uruguayan dictatorship of 1973 to 1985.

Museo de la Memoria was established to commemorate the victims of crimes committed by the state, and the resistance of some Uruguayans in the face of this oppression, during the country's dictatorship. It aims to educate new generations about the country's recent history, to promote respect for human rights, and to remember the struggle for liberty, democracy and social justice. In having these as stated aims, it consciously attempts to strengthen important elements of Uruguayan national identity.
