Memory Garden is opened

The Memory Garden is created on the territory near the Museum. It is a place for walking and reflecting, the space that is usually needed after the difficult topic of the GULAG’s history. Trees, stones, and bushes were brought from places related to the GULAG’s history or planted by victims of the mass repression and represent the memorial part of the Garden.

In the Garden there is a high guard tower from the former camp "Dneprovsky" in the Magadan region. There is also a pavilion for exhibitions and other events in the Memory Garden. The prototype of the pavilion was a board hangar built in 1925 for the only camp seaplane on Solovki.
