Great place to learn about 228 Incident. They have English translations as well as a summary booklet available in a few languages to read about the Incident and the events following. No fee to enter but also couldn't see anywhere to donate. I might have missed this. All in all, worth a visit!

Very interesting museum about the 228 crimes. Don’t forget to pick the english guide book on the way inz

Very interesting museum. Entrance is free. Basic information are displayed in English, and more is supposedly available online. I just wished some more information were translated in English.

Originally, we didn’t really want to visit it because we thought that this museum may have exhibitions full of sad stories of memories.
The good thing is that the building itself has so much to say because it’s also well-maintained and the interior design is elegant and slight feeling of grandeur.
At the time of our visit, one of the exhibitions is for the paintings of a famous artist who is also a victim of the 228 event.
In general, visitors can finish their visit in around an hour, and it’s free for no tickets are required.

Important history presented effectively. I felt like I learned a lot and left wanting to know more.
Almost all of the signage is presented in Chinese only. Those who do not read Chinese should bring headphones; there are audio guides available via qr code in English, Japanese, and Korean for the entire permanent exhibit and some of the non permanent exhibit.
Following the English audio guide took a bit over an hour.

It’s the traumatic history this island should never ever forget. It’s a place to visit if you want to know the sophisticated relationship between the peoples on the island.

Free entry. A nice memorial museum to learn the 228 history of Taiwan. The building itself is a beautiful piece. And they have some events held here.

Good museum that explains the events that led to the infamous Feb 28 massacre and the subsequent military rule of Taiwan that saw widespread human rights violations. The narrative is matter-of-factly and ends with a message of justice and reconciliation.

Most exhibits only have descriptions in Chinese. There are English audio guides at the reception for those who need them. The people working at the museum only speak Chinese. Admission is free.
