Gulag Museum - Russia
Perm, Russia
The Gulag Museum is the only preserved labor camp in Russia. Between 1946 and 1987 “several thousand men, many charged only with the ‘crime’ of free speech, were transported under the cover of night to this maximum security prison to serve sentences as long as 25 years.” Today, the museum staff is focusing on preserving and reconstructing the camp, which contains historical research, artifacts, documents, and oral history.
