The Colonel Ali-Kafi Regional Moudjahid Museum in Skikda works to preserve archives relating to popular resistance movements, the national movement and the War of Liberation. A report from 2019 documents a collecting campaign begun in 2016.
Research-supported collecting
The museum approached veterans and teaching staff to bring together scattered documents. The official quoted describes a scientific and technical council involving researchers from the universities of Skikda, Constantine, Annaba and Guelma to oversee this work.
The holdings described include criminal investigation police archives from Philippeville covering part of 1959, as well as military reports and certificates of detention. The official explains that these documents are cross-checked against oral testimonies to build a more precise picture of the local history of the Revolution.
Archives and public engagement
The source mentions contributions from clubs devoted to the national movement, literature and revolutionary poetry. It therefore presents an institution that also works with study groups, going beyond the display of objects alone.
This report provides information about the museum’s documentary work, but not about the current contents of the galleries open to the public. Arrangements for consulting the archives, opening hours and direct contact details are not established in the captured pages selected. Skikda Archaeological Museum is a separate institution, with its own holdings and history.
