Let \((M_k)\) be a sequence of closed Riemannian manifolds of a fixed dimension \(n\) and suppose that \((M_k)\) converges to a closed Riemannian \(n\)-manifold in the Gromov-Hausdorff topology. It is proved that \[ \text{Vol}(M)\leq \liminf\text{Vol}(M_k), \] provided one of the following two hypotheses are fulfilled: (1) all \(M_k\) are homotopy equivalent to \(M\) and \(M\) admits a map of nonzero degree onto \(T^n\) or \(\mathbb{R} P^n\), or (2) \(n= 2\) and the Euler characteristics of the \(M_k\) are uniformly bounded. It is also shown that for any Riemannian metric \(g\) on \(S^3\), there is a sequence \(g_k\) of Riemannian metrics on \(S^3\) such that \((S^3,g_k)\) converges to \((S^3,g)\) in the Gromov-Hausdorff topology and such that \(\text{Vol}(g_k)\to 0\).
