Khenchela Regional Moudjahid Museum preserves records of the struggle for independence, particularly in the historic Wilaya I. It is separate from the Boulaâziz Martyr Brothers Archaeological Museum.
Objects from the struggle and written archives
The report consulted describes weapons, military equipment, National Liberation Army (ALN) uniforms, parts of downed aircraft and photographs of fighters and martyrs. The documents include correspondence, reports, mission orders, passes and press cuttings.
Members of the public, veterans and academics have contributed to these collections. A scientific council, with teaching staff from Abbas-Laghrour University among its members, supports the documentation work. The collections therefore serve more than a commemorative purpose: they also provide material for studying the period.
Collecting and passing on oral memory
The audiovisual department collects accounts from resistance fighters and from the children and widows of martyrs. The source specifies that teams travel to witnesses who are unable to come to the museum. This work preserves experiences that may have left no written record.
The museum also has a conference space and organises history events and educational visits. General statements about welcoming visitors do not, however, amount to a commitment to opening hours on any particular day. No direct contact details are provided in the captured pages selected, so requests for school visits or access to archives require confirmation from the institution.
