Description

The Museum "Afghan War and Military Glory" in Orenburg, opened on February 1, 2001, is an important cultural site dedicated to the events in Afghanistan and the memory of soldiers. This museum has become popular among schoolchildren and students, as its main goal is to develop a sense of patriotism and preserve military traditions.

The museum's exposition is made up of various exhibits collected during its existence. Among them are personal belongings of fighters, letters, diaries, awards, documents and weapons. The exhibition is divided into three zones: the first represents the peaceful life of the youth of Orenburg in the late 80s, the second - the entry of Soviet troops into Afghanistan and military operations, the third - everyday life and everyday life in combat.

The museum is also being updated, adding new exhibits and stands. One of these stands is the “Stand of the Dead in the Orenburg Region,” which helps to assess the scale of the region’s participation in the war. The Orenburg region suffered greatly from the consequences of the Afghan war, and this museum plays an important role in preserving the memory of those who gave their lives for their homeland.

In 2007, the museum took first place among all Russian museums dedicated to the Afghan war, which emphasizes its significance and authority among visitors and specialists.
