Lonely Planet review for Museum of the Great Patriotic War
This sobering museum (Great Patriotic War is the Soviet name for WWII) is an excellent place to understand the most devastating event affecting the region. Twenty-eight rooms graphically display the horrors of WWII and go a long way towards explaining Belarus' apparent obsession with the Great Patriotic War, which claimed the life of one in four Belarusians.
