Museum

The museum was the home and studio of well-known Soviet sculptor Zair Azgur. The “Zair Azgur Memorial Studio” is a unique place as it is the only monographic museum in Belarus founded on the basis of the workshop of the academy of arts and Azgur’s private studio. The building was built for this purpose in 1984 and in 1996, after the death of the sculptor, became the museum. This workshop was Azgur's most favourite one as it constantly inspired him on creating his masterpieces.

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. 

The museum first opened shortly after the liberation of Minsk from the Nazi invaders, on 25 October 1944, making it the first World War II museum to open during the course of the war. It moved to its current location in 1966.

This Museum is described as "a Museum of positive emotions and memories." Offering an idealized perspective of the Soviet period, it invites "everyone whose childhood has passed in the yard; whom mother screamed home from the window; who drank soda and a milkshake from a faceted glass; who ate the most delicious ice cream at 12 cents; whom the pioneers received in October; who wrote letters on paper and collected waste paper; who danced to the radio, who went to potatoes and to construction teams ... And those who did not experience all of the above" to visit the Museum.

The National Museum of Gitega is the national museum of Burundi.

The Site of Witness and Memory is the only memorial which commemorates the victims of the communist regime from Shkodra. Being one of the main centers of Communist repression in Albania, the city where an Atheist Museum with anti-religious propaganda was built after the Cultural Revolution of 1967, this museum tells the story of people who suffered for their beliefs and moral integrity.

Rising from the crowd-sourced book War Childhood and championing the principles and practices of social entrepreneurship, the independent, youth-led War Childhood Museum has garnered recognition as the world’s only museum focused exclusively on childhoods that have been affected by war.
