The Memorial to the Victims of Repression is an open-air museum and park commemorating the thousands of Uzbek intellectuals, politicians, and citizens who were imprisoned, exiled, or executed during the Soviet period.
The memorial was established in 2002 on the site of a former Soviet-era cemetery. It commemorates the victims of Stalinist purges and political repressions that decimated Uzbekistan's intellectual and cultural elite in the 1930s and 1940s. The memorial is part of Uzbekistan's post-independence effort to reckon with Soviet-era trauma.
