History Museum of Armenia to Open Camp Oddo, Marseille: A Story of Genocide Survivors exhibition
Wednesday, April 23, 2025
A temporary exhibition entitled “Camp Oddo, Marseille: A Story of Genocide Survivors”, dedicated to the 110th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, will be opened on April 26 at the History Museum of Armenia.
The exhibition is organised in collaboration with the French Association for Research and Archiving of Armenian Memory (“ARAM”). The documentary materials transferred to the Museum by the Association depict the everyday life of Armenian Genocide survivors who were sheltered in the Camp Oddo in Marseille, France, and reflect their life in the camp. The “Nansen Passport”, which the “ARAM” Association donated to the History Museum of Armenia a few days ago, plays a key role among the exhibits. The borrowed materials – passports, photographs, documents, books, etc. – will be placed in the exhibition together with the exhibits kept in the History Museum of Armenia.
The exhibition will be open until May 25.
