In this essay, the author presents a short review about the emergence of memorial museums, among the general context of history museums in the 20^th Century. Emphasis is made on the different political and academic transformations of the second half of the mentioned century, with the aim of identifying their impact in the process of musealization of the past. The memorial museum is analyzed, and also commented along with the ideas of other academics, to elucidate what defines it, what differentiates it from the others and how we can assume that it represents a new category of history museums.

Keywords : Memorial museums; Musealization; History; History museums.
