Visit to the National Historical Archive of Belarus by members of the «Young Archivist» circle

On April 25, 2024, an excursion was held at the National Historical Archive of Belarus for students of the State Educational Institution «Secondary School No. 27 of Minsk», who during the current academic year are participating in the work of the «Young Archivist» circle. During the excursion, the leading researcher of the department for the use of documents and information, Vladimir Denisov, introduced schoolchildren to the history of the archive, the structure of its funds, spoke about the most interesting materials from the collections of the Scientific Research Institute of Belarus and showed some of them.

The circle participants were delighted with the opportunity to see with their own eyes the documents of bygone eras. It should be noted that participation in the circle was not in vain: the students demonstrated thorough knowledge not only of the history of Belarus, but also of archive documents.
