From the history of resistance? The case of Peter Rempel
Today we publish a letter that came from one of our media subscribers. The author of this text has spent more than thirty years researching the fate of his grandfather - engineer Petr Petrovich Rempel, who died in the gulag camps in the 1940s. During this time, strange circumstances have come to light in the story - it is possible that Petr Petrovich was indeed involved in the underground work of resistance to Soviet power.

“This was not our war.”
On the anniversary of the German invasion of the Soviet Union, we publish Aren Vanyan's essay on the Zeithain prisoners of war camp (1941-1945) and the family memories of the Soviet soldiers who died there. This text was written as part of the research for the Ehrenhain-Zeithain Memorial site.
