Opening hours: Tu–Sa 10:00–20:30Holdings The “Sud'ba” Database gathers and records information from official documents received from the three major archives of the Ministry of Defense: the Central Archive of the Ministry of Defense—”TsAMO (C–4) in Podol'sk, The Central Naval Archive—”TsVMA in Gatchina (C–5), and the Archive of Military Medical Records in the Military Medical Museum—”VMM (H–212) in St. Petersburg, with additional verification from reports of military commissariats. The database retains precise references to specific documents, and currently it is being augmented and edited with reference to documents received from other archives throughout the former Soviet Union, such as archives of the Registry of Vital Statistics (ZAGS), local oblast archives, and other sources. Copies of the referenced documents as well as official answers to individual inquiries are retained in the Center. The “Sud'ba” Database has entries for over 19 million Soviet citizens who perished or were missing during the war. Thanks to the materials collected, it has been possible to establish the fate of many thousands of citizens who had been missing since the war. The 1,600 volumes of the All-Union Memorial Book is published on the basis of thecollected documents. Due to a shortfall of funding, however, so far only some more limited individual subject-oriented, regional, and republic-level “Memorial Books” have been issued, including those for the Ministry (Comissariat) of Internal Affairs (MVD), for Kirghistan and Turkmenistan, and for “Jews who Perished During World War II,” and several others. |
