slava1stclass Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 To all: There is a new museum in Moscow - The Musuem of Heroes of the Soviet Union, Russia and Full Cavaliers of the Order of Glory. It is located on Bolshaya Cheremushkinskaya Ulitsa. Details follow below (in Russian). Be sure to check it out the next time you are in Mockba.Regards,slava1stclassПервый в России музей Героев Советского Союза, России и полных кавалеров ордена Славы открылся в Москве на Большой Черемушкинской улице. В музее собраны уникальные фотографии, документы, личные вещи, переписка и воспоминания героев. Многие экспонаты повествуют об истории Золотой Звезды и ордена Славы. Центральными экспонатами музея являются портреты и личные вещи первого Героя Советского Союза - летчика Анатолия Ляпидевского. Общественный музей Героев Советского Союза, Российской Федерации и полных кавалеров ордена Славы начал функционировать в Москве еще в 2001 году в помещении Общественного фонда поддержки героев на улице Кржижановского. На Поклонной горе планируется открыть еще один музей, который будет отражать все этапы самой ожесточенной и важной битвы - битвы под Москвой.

Guest Rick Research Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 This seems to be a private museum rather than a government one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian Zulus Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Maybe owned by one of those persons buying up all the high end Russian orders recently ?You guess, there might be a Russian variant of the British "Lord Ashcan" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Ashcr..._Baron_Ashcroft , who built up an own museum for his incredible VC-collection .Best regards Christian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lapa Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Maybe owned by one of those persons buying up all the high end Russian orders recently ? There has been a lot of private museums opening up in Russia over the past few years. I suspect that trend to be implicitly "encouraged" by the authorities.Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Interesting. You wonder how much ex-public-museum material is winding up in them. Does anyone check THOSE serial numbers? We all know the answers . . . ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
