Great Patriotic War Museum in Minsk _ Belarus
Great Patriotic War Museum in Minsk _ Belarus
The Belarusian State Museum of the History of the Great Patriotic War was the world’s first museum to tell the story of the bloodiest war of the 20th century, and the only one in Belarus created during the years of Nazi occupation.
Today it is one of the most important and biggest war museums in the world, along with the well-stocked museums in Moscow, Kiev, and New Orleans.
…In those terrible years Belarus lost every third resident. More than 3 million people died, including about 50,000 partisans and underground fighters. Throughout the country there were 250 death camps, including the infamous Trostenets, one of the largest after Auschwitz, Majdanek and Treblinka...
History of the Museum
The collection of the world's first museum of the Great Patriotic War was founded in June 1942 when no one could predict how long the war would last...
Future exhibits were sent directly from the frontlines to the special republican commission which was set up to collect the documents and materials about the Great Patriotic War. The commission was working out from Moscow where it was evacuated to during the war. Among the museum’s first assets were the chronicles about the partisan movement, printed and handwritten books, handmade weapons...
For nearly six months there was gap in the frontline near Vitebsk, the so-called Vitebsk Gate. Valuable items, material evidence of the atrocities of the enemy were brought through it to Moscow and were put on display in the State History Museum.
In November 1942 the Muscovites saw an impressive exposition titled as Belarus lives, Belarus is fighting, Belarus will remain Soviet. It stayed open until August 1944 when it was moved to the liberated Minsk.
The museum, the guardian of the memory about the courage and tragedy of the Belarusian people, was given one of the few intact buildings in the destructed and looted Minsk. It opened to the public on 22 October 1944.
The first expositions about the weapons of the partisans and military print media grew bigger with new rarities. Already in 1944 the museum workers explored the place of the Trostenets death camp. In 1949, they participated in the first excavations in the heroic Brest Fortress...
In 1966, the museum moved to a building specially built for it in the central square of Minsk (now Oktyabrskaya Square). A unique open-air exposition of military equipment and weapons was opened in 1977 next to the museum.
New Museum Building
New Museum BuildingOver decades of research into the Great Patriotic War the museum’s collection has grown many times: even now it gains 700—800 priceless rarities every year.
In the 21st century upon the initiative of the Belarus president plans were made to create new premises for the museum that will boast more exhibition space and modern technologies to tell and demonstrate more facts about the tragic war…
Prominent Belarusians took part in designing the premises, including co-author of the designs of the Minsk railway terminal and the National Library, professor of the International Architecture Academy Viktor Kramarenko, and also Leonid Levin one of the creators of the famous Khatyn Memorial, an Honored Architect of Belarus …
The renewed museum was solemnly opened on 2 July 2014 on the eve of Independence Day and was kind of a tribute to the 70th anniversary of Belarus’ liberation from the Nazi invaders.
Panorama of the Pobeditelei Avenue. Procession on Independence DayThe magnificent building with the total area of 15,600m2 was erected in a significant place of the Belarusian capital – in the Heroes Square next to the stela Minsk - Hero City and the museum and park complex Pobeda. Military parades and festive marches took place nearby – along the Pobeditelei Avenue.
The current premises of the museum are impressive not only due to their scale but also symbolism that reflects major milestones of the history of 1941-1945. The composition represents four main blocks to match the number of years of the war and the army fronts that took part in Belarus’ liberation.
The front facade looks like a festive salute: 11 sparkling rays made of stainless steel to symbolize the Great Victory and at the same time 1,100 tragic days and nights of Minsk’s occupation.
The project of new museum premises. The front facadeThe serious sheen of the metal used for the decoration speaks of the war while the golden sparkle of the glass signifies the victory and the greatest treasure that is peace.
The design of the new museum premises gently combines stupendous features and modern technologies. Glass niches are complemented with wide plasma screens. Thanks to laser lights “the rays of the salute” seem to penetrate the night sky underscoring the overall outline of the entire museum premises.

UPPER TOWN Minsk (Vierchni Horad) and its CAT Museum (Budget Travel Belarus) {Minsk, BELARUS}
Budget Travel Belarus #3
The Upper Town (Vierchni Horad) is in the heart of the capital, Minsk Belarus.
Naturally there are several museums in the Upper Town Minsk, also known as Old Town Minsk and Old City Minsk. Three are adjacent to each other, including the Carriage Museum in the center, where the city's roots and stories dating back to the medieval times can be found.
Upper Town is also a financial district so a visit at the newly minted Museum of Money is in order. Plus, on this warm day, a rest is required to indulge in the national drink of kvas.
Oh, and cats. Lots and lots of cats at the Cat Museum. Because....cats!
Matt meanders around to discover how Minsk Belarus is safe, clean and tourist-friendly.

Музей Истории Слуцких поясов| History Museum of Slutsk Belts, Belarus
В зоне «Фрагмент дворца Радзивиллов» можно увидеть, как жили представители знатного рода. Будучи представителями одной из самых старинных знатных польско-литовских фамилий, Радзивиллы состояли в родстве со многими влиятельными родами, в том числе с королевскими домами Европы. Несвижские Радзивиллы были фантастически богаты. Дворцовые залы украшала роскошная мебель, персидские ковры, полотна знаменитых художников, бесценные коллекции предметов искусства, хрусталя, оружия, монет и медалей. Некоторые залы были целиком отделаны мрамором, алебастром или золотом.
Считается, что мода на длинные, широкие, шёлковые узорчато-тканые пояса пришла на белорусские земли благодаря идеологии сарматизма, в основе которой лежали генеалогические предания о происхождении аристократии Речи Посполитой от древних воинственных племён сарматов. Под воздействием легенд, широко распространённых в государстве в XVI–XVIII вв., представители верховного сословия страны стремились во всем быть похожими на «славных предков».
Slutsk Belts - National Symbol of Belarus:
The famous Slutsk belts are among Belarus’ national treasures, a fine example of decorative and applied art. They have become not only a historic and cultural symbol but also a modern brand of Belarus.
Only noblemen could afford wearing these exceptionally beautiful, symbolic and expensive belts. They were woven in Belarus since the 18th century. Amazing events and family secrets, mysterious and sometimes mystical stories are connected with them.
Today the original Slutsk belts are a rarity: Belarus has very few of these belts. A large part of them is kept in museum and private collections around the world.
However, Belarus has revived the unique traditions of making the Slutsk belts. Modern artists make their exact copies, analogues and artistic stylized designs, which can make an exclusive souvenir from Belarus.
Slutsk Belts: History of the National Symbol
Long, wide belts with beautiful patterns and complex weave-work from precious yarns became popular in the Belarusian lands in the 16th and 17th centuries. Their popularity was helped by the legends about the origin of the nobility of the Rzeczpospolita from the ancient bellicose tribes of the Sarmatians.
Slutsk BeltsThe belt in the attire of a noble man symbolized the belonging to the elite, the centuries-old family traditions and, of course, wealth. Expensive belts for the gentry were brought from Oriental countries. The unique artistic phenomenon Slutsk belt took shape in the Belarusian lands the 18th century.
Belarusian weavers created their unique patterns and symbolic motifs, and devised their exclusive technology. The Slutsk Manufactory of the Radziwills, the richest and influential dynasty of Europe, became world famous.
The first belt-making manufactory was set up in Nesvizh, but in the 1750s Michal Kazimierz Rybenko Radziwill ordered to move it to Slutsk which was long famous for its skilful weavers.
The Radziwills invited the well-known master Jan Madjarski of Armenian descent who had worked in Istanbul, and Stanislawow. In 1777-1807, the manufactory was run by his son Leon.
In its heyday the Slutsk manufactory employed up to 55 weavers (only men!), 55 apprentices and spinners. Using 20-25 machines the manufactory annually produced around 200 belts of fine work.
Very soon other factories started to copy the Slutsk belts: in Belarusian Grodno, Slonim, Ruzhany, Postavy, Korelichi, Shklov, Polish Kobylka, Lipkowie, Krakow, Gdansk, French Lyon, and in Austria...
However, despite the sign I was made in Slutsk, they were not genuine Slutsk belts. The production of authentic belts at the Radziwill’s manufactory continued into the mid 19th century.
It is believed that nearly 1,000 Slutsk belts have survived till the present day. Almost all of them are kept outside Belarus: in the museum collections of Poland (Warsaw, Krakow, Poznan, Gdansk), Ukraine (Kyiv, Lviv), Russia (Moscow, Saint Petersburg), Lithuania (Vilnius, Kaunas), in private collections.
Belarusian museums have 11 Slutsk belts of different years of manufacture and in different conditions, as well as numerous fragments.

Diana travels on the Stalin's Line.
Military historical complex near Minsk.
If you click on the link, you will get a route from your current location to Stalin Line in Google maps.
The historical and cultural complex “Stalin Line” is one of the most ambitious fortification ensembles in Belarus. It was created on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Victory of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War on the initiative of the Memory of Afghanistan charity foundation with the support of the President of the Republic of Belarus.
The complex was created by the method of national construction, in which state and public organizations, enterprises of various forms of ownership, enthusiasts took part. The main burden of the work to create the museum fell on the shoulders of the units of the engineering forces of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Belarus. The complex was opened on June 30, 2005. It is intended not only to perpetuate the grandiose system of defensive fortifications of the Stalin Line districts, but also to become a symbol of the heroic struggle of the Soviet people against Nazi invaders.
