Military museums of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during the Russian-Ukrainian war of 2014–2022

Abstract

The Russian-Ukrainian war gave a powerful impetus to the expansion of military-historical museum studies in Ukraine. Exhibition sections devoted to this war have become an integral part of most local history museums in the country. However, in these circumstances, the military museums of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are undergoing the greatest reformation. In the process of enhancing their permanent exhibition, the historical aspects of the resistance to Russia's armed aggression and the promotion of the heroism of Ukrainian soldiers has become acutely important and must be integrated within the larger context of Ukrainian military history.
