The display presents over 200 authentic pieces of evidences from the epoch, including letters, diaries, photographs and documents. Each piece has a great amount of history behind it – the history of soldiers and civilians who paid an enormous price to win the war.
Visitors of the Moscow Museum will have a chance to make a journey through time – from the day when the war broke out to Victory Day.
