ArcheoBiblioBase: Archives in Russia: H-17Last update of repository: 9 March 2020Tsentral'nyi muzei Velikoi Otechestvennoi voiny 1941–1945 gg.—Muzei PobedyHistory Officially established 4 March 1986, the museum was opened to the public in May 1995 in a new building specially constructed for it, to mark the fiftieth anniversary of victory in the Great Patriotic War, as the Soviet Front of World War II is known in Russia. Since its foundation, the museum has been collecting extensive materials relating to the war. In the process of expanding its exhibition and research functions, the museum has developed significant archival holdings of various types, part of which are held in the so-called Division of Fonds, and some in the Division of Scientific Reference Service. The Museum has a branch—Memorial Museum of German Anti-Fascists in Krasnogorsk (Memorial'nyi muzei nemetskikh antifashistov v g. Krasnogorske—MMNA). The museum was founded in 1985 in the town of Krasnogorsk (H–18), west of Moscow, where, starting in 1942, there was a prisoner-of-war camp for German soldiers and, starting in 1943, the Central Anti-Fascist School (Tsentral'naia shkola antifashistov).
