Museum

Formerly known as the Memorial in Commemoration of Famines' Victims in Ukraine, the museum is Ukraine's national museum and a world-class centre devoted to the victims of the Holodomor of 1932-1933, a man-made famine in Soviet Ukraine in 1932 and 1933 that killed millions of Ukrainians. The museum was opened on the day of the 75th anniversary of the Holodomor in 2008 and gained the status of a national museum in 2010.

Established in 1992 as a reminder of the unforgivable crime against Serbs, Jews and Roma people which happened during the Second World War. This museum collects data about concentration camps, forced displacement, the devastation of cultural and historical monuments for the educational and historical purposes. Here you can see collections such as “They were just children”, which exhibits data about almost 20.000 boys and girls whose remains were found in one of the tombs at the Jasenovac concentration camp.

The museum brings together the largest collections relating to the French resistance during the Second World War. The Museum of National Resistance in Champigny-sur-Marne shows the history of the French Resistance from its inception up to the Liberation. It enables visitors to gain better understanding of the origins of the French Resistance, its rise to power, its gradual unification and its contribution to the Liberation of the French nation and to the definition of post-war France.

The Museum was founded in 1971 at the instigation of Denise Lorach, a concentration camp survivor, and provides an in-depth and emotional portrayal of this dark period of history.

A one-room museum in the old Bryggen Hanseatic quarter in the heart of Bergen, Norway. Its main exhibit is the room itself that houses the museum – for this reason it is also known under the epithet "Theta Room" (rather than "museum"). It was the secret HQ of a local branch of the Norwegian Resistance during the German occupation in WWII. It was in fact so well hidden that it was only discovered by accident by the Germans, who promptly destroyed it, in 1942. The present room is therefore only a reconstruction.
 

The original museum, which opened in 1966 in the rue Jean Jacques Rousseau, was dedicated to local resistance networks and named the Musée de la Résistance Dauphinoise. The museum underwent significant renovations in the late 1980s and early 1990s and has been in its current premises in the rue Hébert since its reopening in 1994. The building originally housed the architectural sculpture school of Grenoble and the apartments of its director, the sculptor Aimé Charles Irvoy.

After the German Wehrmacht's invasion of Belgium in 1940, the fort was used as a Gestapo prison and as a collection camp. About 7,000 Belgians and foreigners were held captive here, among them many resistance fighters and political opponents. The Fort of Huy was one of the central departure points for transports from Belgium to the National Socialist concentration camps in the German Reich.

The single in Russia museum of the history of political repression “Perm-36” includes the preserved and reconstructed buildings of the camp (correctional labor colony) for political prisoners where during the Soviet era the dissidents, nonconformists, active fighters for the human rights in the Soviet Union, the opponents of the communist regime, the protagonists for national independence of enslaved people – politicians, public figures, writers, scientists – people whose ideas and efforts have contributed to the downfall of the misanthropic regime were h

Opened on the 60th anniversary of the Holocaust, the center is the first of its kind in central Europe to be government funded. A refurbished eclectic synagogue is located in the center of the building.

The German Resistance Memorial Center is a site of remembrance, political studies, active learning, documentation, and research. An extensive permanent exhibition, a series of temporary special exhibitions, events, and a range of publications document and illustrate resistance to National Socialism. The center's goal is to show how individual persons and groups took action against the National Socialist dictatorship from 1933 to 1945 and made use of what freedom of action they had.
