Conducting a lesson for 9th grade students as part of the “Archives for School” campaign

On April 7, 2023, as part of the “Archives for School” action, the “State Archive of the Grodno Region” institution held a lesson for 9th grade students of the State Educational Institution “Gymnasium No. 9 in Grodno” topic “Post-war reconstruction of the city of Grodno”.

The staff of the reading room told the students about the damage caused to the city of Grodno during the Nazi occupation, as well as about the subsequent restoration of the city. The schoolchildren were presented with unique and most interesting documents stored in the archive.

The students were given a tour of the archive, during which they visited the laboratory for the restoration, binding and repair of documents, where they saw with their own eyes the process of restoring documents, and also learned about the conditions for their storage.
