Implementation of the «Museum of Stolen Art» project

The Museum of Stolen Art is a metaverse initiative showcasing Ukrainian cultural heritage stolen or destroyed by Russian forces. The first virtual museum highlights Mariupol’s artefacts. By targeting European audiences, the project emphasizes that Ukrainian heritage is an integral part of European cultural history, which Russia seeks to annihilate as part of its genocidal strategy.

linza agency communicates this urgent message through interactive virtual tours, European webinars (e.g., Europeana, Europa Nostra) presentations, and participation in Berlin and Warsaw conferences. The museum fosters European solidarity, aiming to secure support for future restitution of stolen artworks from Russia to Ukraine. Hosted on a free Spatial platform with multilingual support, the project plans to expand, covering regions like Kherson, Crimea, and Luhansk. By combining innovation, advocacy, and collaboration, the museum underscores the role of cultural preservation in safeguarding democratic values and European identity.
