Over 60,000 people visit new museum in Khatyn in three months

MINSK, 23 June (BelTA) – More than 60,000 people visited the new museum in the Khatyn Memorial Complex in three months, Minsk Oblast Governor Aleksandr Turchin said at the solemn ceremony to mark the Day of Prosecutors that took place at the Mound of Glory Memorial Complex, BelTA has learned.

Aleksandr Turchin thanked the Prosecutor General's Office for investigating the genocide of the Belarusian people. Materials of this criminal case made up the core of the exposition. “In the course of three months since the memorial complex was re-opened after a refurbishment effort, more than 60,000 people have visited it. These are not only Belarusians, but also residents of various countries who come here and see what happened on our land 80 years ago,” he said.

The Minsk Oblast governor highlighted the great contribution of prosecutors to the preservation of historical memory and congratulated all those present on their professional holiday. According to him, it is symbolic that the solemn event is taking place at the Mound of Glory Memorial Complex. “Public prosecutors have always been at the forefront: during the Great Patriotic War they fought on the front lines with the enemy and against crime in the rear, and during the post-war period they protected law and order, defended the interests of people,” Aleksandr Turchin added.

He also mentioned the construction of new buildings to house prosecutors' offices in Minsk Oblast. In particular, prosecutors have recently moved to new buildings in Kopyl District and Pukhovichi District. There are plans to open new offices in Smolevichi District and Cherven District. A residential building for prosecutors was built in Senitsa.

A reminder, the new museum was built in the memorial complex by the 80th anniversary of the Khatyn tragedy upon the instruction of Aleksandr Lukashenko. Large-scale restoration works were carried out there. The youth of Belarus joined the project.

Within a short period of time, a new museum was built in Khatyn. The museum is a one-story building with six exhibition halls narrating the history of major military conflicts and the tragedy of the civilian population.
