On the «Archives for School» campaign at the Zonal State Archives in Novogrudok

On February 16, 2026, as part of the «Archives for School» campaign, sixth-grade students from Novogrudok Secondary School No.4 named after P.A.Mazura visited the Zonal State Archives in Novogrudok.

The students learned about the history and main areas of the archive’s activities, as well as the composition and chronology of the documents stored there. Also on that day, a presentation of the documentary exhibition «Development of the Social Sphere in the Novogrudok Region in the Soviet and Post-Soviet Periods» took place. The documents and photographs in the exhibition tell the story of cultural, social, and housing construction, the development of education, healthcare, and the improvement of rural settlements in the Novogrudok region during the Soviet era, as well as the achievements of which the region is proud today.

Following the meeting, the students visited the archival storage facility, where they learned about the optimal conditions for storing documents, their placement, and the retrieval procedure.
