On the eve of the 900th anniversary of the Convent of the Saviour and St. Euphrosyne, which will take place on June 5, 2025, the staff of memorial complex “Khatyn” made a trip to one of the oldest cities in Belarus - Polotsk. This visit was not only an opportunity to touch the origins of the spirituality and culture of our country, but also a reason to rediscover the greatness of historical shrines.
On May 18, 2025, memorial complex “Khatyn” received a delegation from Bryansk Region. This visit turned into a deep, sincere touch to the common memory and pain shared by the peoples of Belarus and Russia.
This weekend, visitors to the renovated memorial complex will be treated to exhibition displays from six districts of Minsk region.
In honor of International Family Day, Memorial Complex “Khatyn” is holding a special event for museum visitors on May 17, 2025. On this day, families will be able to visit the museum on special terms.
As part of his working visit to the Republic of Belarus, the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation Andrei Belousov visited memorial complex “Khatyn”. He was personally met and accompanied by the Minister of Defense of the Republic of Belarus, Lieutenant General Viktor Khrenin.
On May 13, 2025, at the memorial complex "Mound of Glory", participants of the Russian-Belarusian patriotic expedition "The Unconquered" unfurled a giant Victory Banner (35x65 m) - a symbol that will travel 5,000 km through the places of military glory of our fraternal peoples.
Today, when the generation of victors is gradually leaving, and the Victory in the Great Patriotic War is becoming a subject of ideological debate, it is especially important to preserve the historical truth. The peoples of Russia and Belarus, linked by a common history and common pain, need to jointly defend the memory of the feat of the Soviet people.
