Hi, I have IPAD MINI 1, it was broken few years ago and I decided to restore it, afterwards I reseted it to factory settings, then I have a screen about activation lock. I didn’t remember password and the login of iCloud, how can I open my iPad?

To remove this you will need Proof of Purchase, if you have bought it from a person directly, you will likely not have sufficient proof to satisfy Apple's requirements however if you bought your iPad Mini 1 from an Apple Authorised Reseller, including from Apple directly, your proof should be sufficient.
