The Motherland Calls, Volgograd
 
Undoubtedly, the most tragic page in the history of Russia was the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945, which took the lives of millions of Soviet people, who defended their motherland. Every inch of Russian land had to be won back with incredible efforts and terrible losses. Entire cities fought to the bitter end, including all peaceful population, and that incredible example of courage and perseverance later brought them the honorary title of Hero Cities of Russia.
If you chose this journey we invite you to visit the splendid Russian cities: Kursk, Smolensk, Volgograd, St. Petersburg, Orel and many others. Each of them keeps the memories of those terrible events displayed in grandiose monuments, memorials, museums and exhibitions ...

The Hero City of Volgograd is known for its most vivid and spectacular revelations of the bloody horrors of the war. Pictures of the past come alive when you visit the Stalingrad Panorama Museum right at the foot of the Mamaev Kurgan.
