In total, the funds contain about 145,000 rarities collected during military operations in Eastern Europe and Germany, as well as those transferred by embassies of different countries in peacetime. Military rarities make up 28 collections and are exhibited in 10 thematic halls.

The historical and cultural complex "Stalin Line" is one of the most grandiose fortification ensembles in Belarus. It was created for the 60th anniversary of the Victory of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War on the initiative of the charitable foundation "Memory of Afghanistan" with the support of the President of the Republic of Belarus. The complex is designed not only to perpetuate the grandiose system of defensive fortifications of the "Stalin Line" regions, but also to become a symbol of the heroic struggle of the Soviet people against the Nazi invaders.

It is possible to organize meals in the Minsk self-service restaurant "Lido" or the fast food cafe "McDonald's".
