The Ushaсhi Museum of People's Glory named after Vladimir Lobanok is planned to be opened after reconstruction in May 2020. This was announced by the Chairman of the Vitebsk Regional Council of Deputies, Vladimir Terentyev, at a meeting of the regional organizing committee on the preparation and celebration of the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Belarus.

Capital repairs with modernization of the museum have been underway since 2018. This year, Br300 thousand have been allocated for the necessary work. "The foundation has been strengthened, the roof has been repaired, doors and windows have been replaced. Currently, the engineering networks of the storage fund, cinema hall, exhibition hall are being equipped, and finishing work is being carried out in these premises. The replacement of the heating system and power supply networks continues," said the Chairperson of the Ushaсhi District Council of Deputies, Natalia Markovich.

To manage to open the renovated museum in 2020, another Br385 thousand are needed for construction work and Br50 thousand for the restoration of the unique mural by monumental artist Vladimir Krivoblotsky. The author is ready to help with this.

The head of the region's deputy corps, Vladimir Terentyev, added that this factor will be taken into account when forming the regional budget for next year.
