Donate

Restoration, archive digitisation and education programmes exist on donations

Where the money goes

One project a year: materials, tools and workshop labour. Restoring the Il-2 took thirteen months.

Drawings, photographs and newsreels: scanning, description and publication in the open archive.

Free outreach sessions for schools more than 50 kilometres away.

«Every machine here is worth exactly the person-hours put into it. The rest is metal.»

S. V. Gushchin

Restoration workshop master

Twenty years in the museum workshop. Led the restoration of the Il-2 raised from a lake bed.

Any amount from 100 roubles, by card or fast payment system.

Regular giving lets us plan restoration projects a year ahead.

Documents, photographs and hardware are accepted after assessment. Write to us and we will explain the procedure.
