On the initiative and efforts of the Danish missioner  Maria Jacobsen, an orphanage opened in 1922 in Sayida, which moved to the Jibeyl in 1928 and was called “Bird's Nest”.

 Thousands of orphans who survived the Genocide were educated there and were grateful to Jacobson for being "mummy" for all of them. In 1970, "Bird's Nest" was handed over to the administration of the Catholicosate of Cilicia. Today the children of Armenian families who live in Jibeyl  can study in the "Bird's Nest".

In 2015 Museum of Armenian Genocide Orphans after Aram Pezikian was opened in one of the oldest buildings of the orphanage. It was named in honor of Aram Pezikian, who  was among the thousands of orphans who could survive the genocide.

The materials of the museum are in English, accompanied by translations in Armenian, French and Arabic. The exhibition consists of three sections: "Genocide", "Orphans" and "Renaissance". They represent the way the orphans passed the stages. In the museum, audio and video effects make the exhibition even more impressive and realistic (for example, the voice of the orphans is  heard from the museum entrance).
