Guests of the National Centre RUSSIA are invited to explore archival documents and artefacts from the Great Patriotic War as part of the original project "Thursday.Development." The thematic meeting "Frontline Mysteries: Artefacts of the Great Patriotic War," dedicated to lesser-known episodes of wartime history, will be held on June 19 at 19:00 at the National Centre RUSSIA to mark the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow. 

Participants will learn about recently discovered historical artefacts and hear remarkable facts about the war. The programme includes talks by leading historians, analysis of rare documents, and an open discussion with the audience on the importance of preserving the memory of our country's heroic past. Experts will present exclusive archival materials and share stories of the bravery of those who resisted the enemy during the most difficult years.

The event will be moderated by Yulia Kozlova, host of live broadcasts for the Russian society Znanie and lead moderator for Channel One. Speakers will include Igor Permyakov, Director of the Russian State Archive of Contemporary History; Sergei Sopelev, Head of the Civil and Patriotic Section of the Moscow Branch of the Russian Military Historical Society; and Yuri Ovsinsky, author of the projects "Moscow with Yuri Ovsinsky" and "Celebration with Yuri Ovsinsky."
