Documentary exhibition at the board of the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Belarus

On February 8, 2024, an extended meeting of the board of the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Belarus was held, at which the results of the work for 2023 were summed up and tasks for 2024 were identified.

As part of this event, the National Archives of the Republic of Belarus prepared a documentary exhibition «Partyzans, partisans, Belarusian sons» and a banner exhibition «The Land of Courage and Glory».

This exhibition project presents documents reflecting the facts of the courage and heroism of our compatriots during the war: diaries of combat operations, the partisan oath, reports and stories of partisan detachments and brigades, award sheets and characteristics of partisans and underground fighters, archival photos and drawings of partisan artists, and also personal files of Heroes of the Soviet Union. The documentary materials presented at the exhibition contribute to the self-identification of the Belarusian people, the education of patriotism and a sense of pride in the heroic past.

The head of the department M.A.Starostenko and the leading archivist V.P.Garmatny of the Department for the Use of Documents and Information of the National Archives introduced those present to the documents and answered numerous questions.
