Greetings on the 100th anniversary of the Donetsk Republican Museum of Local History

September 17, 2024

Vladimir Putin sent a message of greetings to the staff of the Donetsk Republican Museum of Local History, which also includes the Military History Museum of the Great Patriotic War, the Museum of Labour Valour of Donbass and the Velikoanadolsk Forest Museum.

The message reads, in part:

“This museum was founded by talented and highly educated people, who understood the importance of broad public education. Their energy, enthusiasm and dedication have been instrumental in putting together the museum’s collections of archaeological, ethnographic and numismatic artefacts, as well as collecting unique documents, rare print publications, photographs, and samples of products from local industrial enterprises. This diverse exhibit introduces visitors to the heroic pages of the history of Donbass, underscores its inextricable links with Russia, and tells the story of many generations of your countrymen whose efforts and talents have driven the development of this region and the entire country.

It is important that, despite the difficult situation at hand, the museum’s team continues to implement research and public awareness projects such as thought-provoking exhibitions and lectures, guided tours, and other information, creative, and patriotic initiatives.”
