M.41.GAOOGO - Documentation from the State Archive of the Public Organizations in the Gomel Region
 
 History of the State Archive of the Public Organizations in the Gomel Region
 
 The regional authority established the Archive of the Communist Party in March 1940. The Archive was evacuated to the eastern areas of the Soviet Union in August 1941. Much of the documentation was destroyed during the evacuation as a result of the Germans' air-raids. After the liberation of the occupied areas of the Soviet Union, the central committee of Communist Party in Belorussia transferred some of the documentation to the Archive of the Historical Institute of the Communist Party. The Archive resumed its activity in September 1947. Documentation of the Communist Party organizations that were active in the Gomel region during 1920-1941 was transferred to the Archive in 1982. The Archive became the State Archive of the Public Organizations in the Gomel Region on 20 September 1996.
