The results for the Faraday effect and magnetogyration in non-centro-symmetric, non-polar Bi₁₂GeO₂₀ crystals are presented. Those phenomena are studied for the magnetic field applied along <111> direction and the light wavelengths of 632.8nm and 602nm. The values of the determined coefficients are equal to a₁₁=329.5*10^-11Oe^-1, d₃₂₁=10.6*10^-11Oe^-1 (l=602nm) and a₁₁=321.3*10^-11Oe^-1, d₃₂₁=3.5*10^-11Oe^-1 (l=632.8nm) for the Faraday effect and the magnetogyration, respectively.
