Family tree research
For the museum researching Russian-Germans' family trees is very challenging work because most of the data is spread throughout central and regional archives of the former Soviet Union. The museum has only access to a very small amount of this information.
Furthermore, the museum does not have enough personnel for in depth research. Therefore, the museum can only offer basic consultation to family tree researchers and point them in the right direction, for example to institutions that may be helpful.
Further down you will find a list of several addresses that can be helpful for your first steps in family tree research.
