On July 5, 2025, the opening of the exhibition "Look and Remember..." took place at Memorial Complex “Khatyn”, dedicated to the 40th anniversary of the release of Elem Klimov's film "Come and See". It is symbolic that the opening took place on the very day when the memorial complex was opened in 1969, becoming a silent witness to the tragedy and the power of memory.
This year, when we celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, memorial complex “Khatyn” became the venue for a special service. As part of the All-Russian prayer service for Victory "You Will Win!", participants in the religious procession visited the Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, located on the territory of the memorial complex.
In the anniversary year of the Great Victory, the cultural and educational project "Train of Memory" brought together about 300 participants from 15 republics of the former Soviet Union. This unique project united young people who strive to preserve and pass on the memory of tragic and heroic pages of history.
