NOTE: In 2021, the idea of creating a monument ‘Living Memory of Grateful Generations’ in three points of the Union space - in the Hero-City of Minsk, the Hero-City of Moscow and the Hero-City of Brest Fortress - emerged.
As part of the project, at events in important places, such as the Museum of the History of the Great Patriotic War in Minsk, the Museum of the Defence of the Brest Fortress, the Victory Museum on Poklonnaya Hill in Moscow and other museums of military glory, flasks are set up ceremoniously, with the cutting of the red ribbon, where everyone can bring their own coin or a coin from their family as gratitude to the military generation and as a memory of their family's heroism during the Great Patriotic War. Hundreds of thousands of coins from modern Belarusians and Russians, grateful generations who remember and honour, will unite in a hot alloy in a single impulse of co-creation for the glory of our common heroic grandfathers and great-grandfathers!
In 2024 the start is given to the collection of coins for installation of the monument in Moscow in 2025 in honour of the Great Victory of the Soviet people over fascism. With the support and participation of the Victory Museum the ceremonial events have already been held in 7 regions of Belarus and 17 regions of Russia. Another 56 regions have applied for participation in the action.
Excess alloy coins are poured into ingots engraved with ‘9 May 1945’, which will be placed in all museums of military glory in Belarus and Russia and in museums of friendly states.
‘The project has captured millions of hearts,’ said Belarusian athlete, motivational speaker and public figure Alexei Talai. - Half a million Soviet coins made it into the alloy of the monument, which was installed last year in the memorial complex ‘Brest Fortress-Hero’. And in this year of the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, we will nationwide install a third monument on Poklonnaya Hill in Moscow and thus celebrate this great holiday,’ he said.
