An exhibition dedicated to the partisan movement on the territory of the Soviet Union during the Great Patriotic War began work at the Russian Center for Science and Culture in Bratislava. The exposition includes about 50 exhibits from the collection of the Russian Museum of Victory, as well as from the family archives of the inhabitants of Slovakia, Pobeda RF reports.
The museum said that visitors would learn about the struggle that the partisans waged on the outskirts of Moscow, in Karelia, in the forests of the Novgorod region, Crimea, Belarus, the Baltic republics, Ukraine and Moldova. Guests will be told about the hero-guerrillas and the awards introduced specifically for them.
Among the exhibits are posters and leaflets distributed during the war. Also at the exhibition one can see materials from family archives donated to the exhibition by residents of Slovakia. The materials testify to the close cooperation of the Red Army with the Slovak partisans.
The opening ceremony of the exhibition was timed to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II and the 76th anniversary of the Slovak National Uprising.
