Smolensk before and now
Smolensk - a city in Russia, the administrative, industrial and cultural center of the Smolensk region. September 25, exactly 70 years ago, the city of Smolensk was liberated from the Nazi invaders. I suggest you look at the photos from the streets of the city-hero during the war and see how they are converted now. Unfortunately, most of these photos were taken by the Germans, so our photographers were at the time not to shoot. Smolensk 1941-2013 Destruction in Victory Square.
