Collections and documentation of the museum character of the Union of Gypsies-Roma and their further destinies after the dissolution of the Union - Finding Report

Abstract

The finding report captures the complementarity of written and photographic historical sources, stored both in the Moravian Land Archive and in the Museum of Romani Culture in Brno. These archives make it possible to reconstruct the earliest period of the collections and library of the current Museum of Romani Culture, which falls into the period of existence of the Union of Gypsies-Roma (1969-1973).
