 History of the National Archive of the Republic of Belorussia 
 
 The Central Archive for the October Revolution of the Belorussian Soviet Republic was established in the city of Minsk on 28 May 1927. The Archive moved to the city of Mogilev in 1930. The Archive underwent reorganization in 1938, and became the State Archive of the October Revolution and the Socialistic Construction. Following the outbreak of the war in 1941, the Archive's activities stopped. The Archive renewed its work in the city of Gomel in January 1944 and moved to the city of Minsk in July 1944. Its name was changed to the State Archive of Belorussia in 1993. After documentation from the Central Archive of the Communist Party in Belorussia was transferred to the Archive in June 1995, its name was changed to the National Archive of the Republic of Belorussia.
