Abstract

The article is of a review nature and is devoted to the analysis of personal funds stored in the Belarusian State Archive of Scientific and Technical Documentation – memoirs. The excerpts given in the article from the memoirs left by Belarusian architects G. V. Zaborsky, V. M. Volchek, E. K. Dyatlov, G. A. Parsadanov, N. N. Makletsova about the Great Patriotic War by direct participants in the events provide the researcher with invaluable information, which no official historical source can provide. They allow us to more accurately and in detail understand what people felt while under fire, what they dreamed about and what they hoped for in the most difficult moments of their lives. The author states that modern researchers, when studying the history of the Great Patriotic War, often ignore the documents of the personal funds of direct participants in the events stored in the Belarusian State Archive of Scientific and Technical Documentation, National Archive of the Republic of Belarus, National Historical Archive of Belarus in Grodno and other archives. At the same time, the use of this kind of documents will not only enrich the source base of the study, but also make it more conclusive in the context of the issues being studied.
