Volgograd, Russia skyline: the 19 most iconic buildings and best views in Volgograd

Simply breathtaking ! The 85m statue of the Motherland is surreal, the eternal flame with the music is really moving and the statues are marvelous ! This complex is a magnificent tribute to the more than 1 million Soviet people that died to liberate the city of Stalingrad, then leading to the liberation of Europe !

Mamayev Kurgan is a hill in Volgograd named after Mamaya, famous Tatar khan who was buried here (Kurgan is a resting place in Tatar). In more recent history this hill (among many other sites around) is famous for one of the most important battles in WWII, which changed the course of it in Europe. There are several things to explore here, and I'll list them here and explain in a separate review. Count on at least 3 hours for a visit. You can reach Mamayev Kurgan in 2 ways, depending if you want a more relaxed or more impressive approach. More impressive is taking a taxi or speed tram that will take you to the hill foot, close to the Volga river, and then climb 200 steps (200 days lasted the battle). Climbing them the statue becomes bigger and bigger and you visit other monuments along the way - reflection pool, huge stone reliefs, Eternal flame and Hall of Glory,....Beware, this requires 200 steps uphill climb plus spaces in between them. More relaxed means taking a taxi which will take you to the top of the hill where's the Motherland Calls statue, seeing it first and then descending downhill and seeing other attractions in the opposite way. The complex is totally free to visit, and I suggest coming in the morning, as the sun is shining at the statue and whole complex then, so you will have better light on your pics. We were late afternoon and the sun was behind the statue.

The whole complex is a must-see open air museum. Historically impressive, visually stunning and very spacious. Easily the best part of Volgograd.

A must see if you go to Volgograd. The main statue is similarly on the level of the Statue of Liberty. This place is a pretty massive memorial complex.

A must do when in Volgograd. Must be the number one tourist site. Be prepared to be in awe of the scale. Easily accessible by public transport. Be prepared to walk but all extremely pleasant with refreshment stands all around.

A great war memorial. Great place. Beautiful and historical.

Is the best place in Volgograd (Stalingrad) to visit. Huge park with many sights.

nice outside

(Translated by Google) The tour of the planetarium is, of course, intended more for schoolchildren than for adults. It is possible to walk around the lobby of the planetarium, without a tour, and see Stalin’s mosaic panel in the center and a couple of meteorites at the entrance. Of course, you can talk a lot about gifts from the GDR, which was restored by the USSR. But upon reflection, we can firmly say where the planetarium came from, as well as who won the Great Patriotic War. The excursion for 400 rubles is more than humanitarian, considering that there were only two of us, me and my wife. For example, an excursion to the former post office of the city of Chekhov, dedicated to Chekhov’s personal letters, which Chekhov did not even know about, cost 1,500 rubles for two. There is more material to study here. Foucault's pendulum, if you haven't seen it yet, go here. Undoubtedly, the collection of meteorites on the 2nd floor really attracted attention. (Original) Экскурсия по планетарию рассчитана конечно более на школьников, чем на взрослых людей. Возможно походить по вестибюлю планетария, можно и без экскурсии и увидеть мозаичное панно Сталина в центре и пару метеоритов на входе. Конечно можно много трепаться про подарки от ГДР, которую восстанавливал СССР. Но поразмыслив можно твердо сказать откуда взялся планетарий, как и то, кто победил в Великой Отечественной войне. Экскурсия за 400 р более чем гуманитарная, если учесть, что нас было только двое, я и жена. К примеру экскурсия в бывшем почтовом отделении города Чехов, посвященной личным письмам Чехова, о чём Чехов даже не догадывался обошлась в 1500 р на двоих. Здесь больше материала для изучения. Маятник Фуко, если вы его ещё не видели вам сюда. Несомненно коллекция метеоритов на 2 этаже очень привлекла внимание.

(Translated by Google) The place is very warm, the excursions are interesting. But today it was a shame: my husband and I came, the electricity suddenly went out (anything can happen), we didn't finish the program. But the staff offered an alternative: a short excursion. We decided that we would just come back another time. We didn't ask for a refund or complain. We just stood at the exit, waiting for a taxi. For some reason, the staff Elena decided that it would be right to herd everyone waiting (about 15 people plus several children) into a small hall without air conditioning in the heat of 36 degrees. Rude and very arrogant. I lost the desire to come back. Although all the other employees were very nice, polite and hospitable. (Original) Место очень душевное, интересные экскурсии. Но сегодня было обидно: пришли с мужем, неожиданно отключилось электричество (всякое бывает), программу не закончили. Но персонал предложил альтернативу: небольшая экскурсия. Мы решили, что мы просто вернёмся в другой раз. Не просили возврат денег или жаловались. Просто стояли на выходе, ждали такси. Персонал Елена почему-то решила, что это будет правильно загнать всех ожидающих (около 15 человек плюс несколько деток) в маленький холл без кондиционера в жару 36 градусов. Грубо и очень надменно. Отпала желание возвращаться. Хотя все другие сотрудники были очень приятные, вежливые и гостеприимные.

(Translated by Google) I visited the planetarium last year while passing through Volgograd. It was an unforgettable experience, and I don't regret spending the money. The guide gave a very engaging account of the planetarium's history, the exhibits, and the stories behind many of the paintings housed there. My family and I were also planning to go to the observatory; the tour was supposed to be the next day, but unfortunately, we were too busy to make it. I highly recommend visiting this place if you're in Volgograd. (Original) Был в планетарии в прошлом году, проездом в Волгограде. Это незабываемый опыт, не жалею о том что потратил деньги. Экскурсовод очень интересно рассказал про историю планетария, экспонаты, рассказал историю многих картин находящихся там. Собирались также с семьёй пойти в обсерваторию, экскурсия по которой должна была быть на следующий день, но увы, появилось много дел и мы не успели. Очень советую посетить это место если приехали в Волгоград

(Translated by Google) A very famous landmark of the city. The planetarium was built in 1954, a gift from the workers of the GDR to the Soviet people. The dome of the building is crowned with the sculpture “Peace”, created by sculptor V.I. Mukhina. Monumental and very beautiful, in addition, there was a rather interesting program for 18 hours (Original) Очень известная достопримечательность города. Планетарий был построен в 1954 году, это подарок тружеников ГДР советскому народу. Купол здания венчает скульптура "Мир", созданная скульптором Мухиной В.И. Монументально и очень красиво, кроме того достаточно интересная программа была на 18 часов

(Translated by Google) Admission for an adult is 400₽. There is a very beautiful antique interior inside. The planetarium itself was built in the middle of the last century. The exhibition is educational. Fascinating. There are very rare and valuable exhibits. (Original) Вход для взрослого 400₽. Внутри очень красивый старинный интерьер. Сам же планетарий построен в середине прошлого века. Экспозиция познавательная. Завораживает. Есть экспонаты очень редкие и ценные.

(Translated by Google) 70 years ago I was here for the first time (Original) 70 лет назад я был тут первый раз

(Translated by Google) There are monuments that are very reminiscent of the Soviet Union. (Original) いかにもソ連らしいモニュメントが有ります。

Very beautiful city I recommend to come here I’m from New York and this place is super safe and nice

You can't put in words how beautiful this place is. It's an amazing memorial that you won't ever forget in your life. Even though I live in Chicago, this is the city I was born in. It was previously named Stalingrad and from what any history will tell you is that the battle of Stalingrad was most likely the bloodiest battle during World War II. The River Volga was running red with blood. Almost every building in the city was completely leveled to dust. This memorial is a commemoration to those millions of Russian who have died during World War II. Overall the whole place is beautiful in and of itself. And it has an amazing atmosphere you won't forget. The statue is said to be the tallest and most grand female statue in the world. Just standing under it and looking up will give you a sense of how small you are compared to it. All of the statues there and even the cathedral is a beautiful and eye opening place. I would definitely recommend visiting.

A great MUST Visit spot if you ever visited the city of Volgograd in Russia The statue which is considered the biggest female statue in the world is in the center of the area which is full of other statues and other great things to see and have some lovely photos. The spot is advised to be visited near sunset as its a long walk in the sun , and also best to do it to start it from up to down , not the other way round.

The grandiose monument at the top of the Mamayev Kurgan in Volgograd leaves no one indifferent. Locals affectionately call him Mama, but the whole world knows the statue as "Motherland Calls!" She depicts a woman in fluttering clothes, holding a sword raised to the sky in her right hand. Appeal and rage are written on her face, her mouth is distorted with a cry, as if raising 35 thousand soldiers to attack from the memorial cemetery behind her. The creation of the outstanding Soviet sculptor Yevgeny Vuchetich personifies the pain and glory of our people, delighting with strength and dynamism. The statue is a very complex engineering facility, built of pre-stressed reinforced concrete using the same technology as the Ostankino TV tower, its builder N.V. Nikitin supervised the work here as well. The sculpture weighs 8000 tons, its height is 85 m, the 33-meter 14-ton sword is made of fluorinated steel. The interior space is divided into 11 floors connected by stairs. The tension of the 116 steel ropes pulling the statue down from the inside, and the vibration amplitude of the sword, are continuously monitored by sensors.

can we feel the scale of the tragedy and heroism of the Soviet people during the great Patriotic war? Mamaev Kurgan. the larks sing, it's like weeping over the grief of all mothers whose sons and daughters were devoted to their military duty. and it does not matter on which side the soldiers fought. they paid the most valuable-their lives. and let the descendants know, let them feel, let them cry. we thank you for our peace. for what we hear singing lark, for the sun and freedom, for life!

It's very good and elegant place. That show the glory of the Russian soldiers to deffence their country during the second world War. The Russian security are very friendly in their. They always trying to help the tourism and provide them with necessary information

The sculpture is second to none. Being a work of a genius, it evokes a wide range of emotions. Currently is being renovated until April, 2020. But don't be sorry if you find the view a bit obstructed. Its enormous presence is still there. And this is the first time this sculpture is being renovated almost in a century, so consider it an opportunity to see it in a different way

Definitely worth a visit when you are in town. Would take about 90-120 minutes for a proper visit. Many artifacts of war, as well as a nice animated description of the events happened. The panorama part is also pretty cool, especially if you have never seen a panorama museum before. The outdoor part right outside/behind is also a living museum, the ruined building and the famous fountain, as well as the train on the side.

This museum is set just by the ruined mill and the entrance is beneath it, from the Volga river promenade. The museum layout is fantastic - spread over some 10 rooms clockwise depicting the WWII chronologically with an accent on the famous Stalingrad battle. Apart many weapons, uniforms and personal items displayed, most interesting I found somewhere around the middle (room 5 or 6) a huge digitalized map with amazing computer animation about the battle. At the top floor is a huge 360' diorama about the battle. Entry fee is symbolic - few Euros.

The greatest battle in human history. 2 million death and injured... You can pay additional 100RUB for 'photos free'.

Is a nice museum. Much to see about the Second World War.

The Battle of Stalingrad Museum is one of the best in Volgograd and will require at least two hours, and preferably a good command of Russian to fully appreciare. Although there is an audio guide in various languages - which will give you a sense of the displays - the museum is so rich that you'd miss tons otherwise. Inexpensive to enter. Leave understanding the sacrifice and horrors of war.

Very interest museum in the city's heart. A lot of information about the war and many old things as remembers of last years.

Relics with an amazing story to go with them. Well put together and well upkept.

Wonderful monument kind maintained well .

Nice place to visit

Amazing view

(Translated by Google) The cathedral was built in 1894-1899 in the Russian style. The prototype of the cathedral was the Alexander Nevsky Temple at the Russian Embassy in Paris. In 1939, the cathedral was closed and converted into a bakery. During the Battle of Stalingrad, the temple building was damaged, but was then restored and handed over to believers in 1948. From 1991 to 2021 it was the cathedral of the diocese. (Original) Собор был построен в 1894-1899 годах в русском стиле. Прообразом собора послужил храм Александра Невского при русском посольстве в Париже. В 1939 году собор закрывают и переоборудуют в хлебозавод. Во время Сталинградской битвы здание храма пострадало, но затем было восстановлено и передано верующим в 1948 году. В 1991—2021 годах был кафедральным собором епархии.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful cathedral in a modern neighborhood. There is a nice garden inside the fence where you can relax. The cathedral itself is very photogenic and you can take a lot of good photos. The interior is very good, it has the feel of an ancient praying temple. Price list for services for millionaires of the hero city (cheaper on Rublyovka), for this a four (Original) Красивый собор в современном микрорайоне. Внутри ограды милый садик, можно отдохнуть. Сам собор очень фотогеничен, можно сделать много хороших фотографий. Интерьер очень хорош, ощущения старинного намоленного храма. Ценник на требы для миллионеров города-героя (на Рублевке дешевле), за это четверка

(Translated by Google) The most sacred place in our city... The cathedral is beautiful, sincere, homely, I would say... Times were different, years and tribulations fly over the domes, but the doors of the temple are open to everyone... good people, keep your glorious faith, come , in spiritual silence, stand by the icons, pray for the living and those who have left us... Happy Nativity of Christ! Many summers... (Original) Самое намоленное место в нашем городе... Собор,красив,душевен,домашний я бы сказала... Времена были разные,годы и перепетии летят над куполами,но двери храма открыты для всех...люди добрые,храните веру проваславную,приходите,в душевной тишине постойте у икон, помолитесь за живых и ушедших от нас... С праздником рождества Христова! Многие лета...

(Translated by Google) It is a pity that the cathedral is located in such a cramped place. It seems to me that he does not have enough space to enjoy his greatness. The yard is very well maintained, there are many flowers and beautiful trees. There are benches. You can see the love of the working people. God bless them. P.S. I don’t often visit such places, but my family stopped by here. Clean, kind place. (Original) Жаль что собор стоит в таком тесном месте. Ему не хватает, как мне кажется простора, чтобы насладиться его величием. Во дворе очень ухожено, много цветов и красивых деревьев. Есть лавочки. Видно любовь трудящихся. Дай Бог им здоровья. P. S. Я не часто посещаю такие места, но тут заехали семьёй. Чистое, доброе место.

(Translated by Google) I was traveling on 09/19/24. I came to the opening of the ticket office, asked for a ticket to the nearest one to Novonikolaevsk, the cashier gave me a ticket for 9.00, but then there were flights much earlier, I had to sit for an extra 2 hours. They charge for luggage, although there is no luggage compartment, literally at all. As a result, the driver pushed my suitcase into the back of the cabin and slammed the door forcefully so that my plastic suitcase, which costs a lot of money, broke. Route number 899t In the cabin there is a sign with the names of the drivers .Kuzin and Markin. I don’t know which of them was there that day, we didn’t meet, but someone should answer for the broken suitcase. (Original) Ехала 19.09.24.Пришла к открытию кассы,попросила билет на ближайший до Новониколаевска, кассир дала билет на 9.00,но потом были рейсы на много раньше ,пришлось сидеть лишние 2часа.Берут плату за багаж,хотя багажного отделения нет,от слова совсем.В результате водитель впихнул мой чемодан в конце салона и с силой захлопнул дверь так что ,мой пластиковый чемодан ,который стоит не мало денег,сломался . Номер маршрута 899т В В салоне весит вывеска с фамилиями водителей .Кузин и Маркин.Кто из них был в тот день не знаю ,не знакомились ,но кто-то должен ответить за сломанный чемодан.

(Translated by Google) 05/25/25 contacted the information desk. A window opened and we flew away from the administrator's scream.)) When I asked not to raise my voice, they completely ignored me!! I didn't get a single answer to my questions. "I shouldn't, I'm not obliged, these are your problems, go wherever you want" - a list of phrases from a girl who should have basic information for her position!!!! Volgograd!!!! This is a disgrace!!!! (Original) 25.05.25 обратились в справочную. Открылось окно и мы улетели от крика администратора.))на просьбу не повышать голос был полный игнор!! На мои вопросы не было получено ни одного ответа. " я не должна, я не обязана, это ваши проблемы, куда хотите, туда и идите" - перечень фраз девушки, которая должна владеть элементарной информацией на занимаемой должности!!!! Волгоград!!!! Это позорище!!!!

(Translated by Google) What is the point of the second checkpoint? Why can't you see a person off normally and help him with his bags? The workers stand there with an insolent look and almost rush. But at some times there is no one there and anyone can go through who wants to. Bus drivers check passengers before leaving, so what is the point of this checkpoint?? It only prevents people from saying goodbye normally. Benches on the street are only for smoking, there is nowhere to sit on the street, only on the "platform", where you are allowed only with tickets, that is, either wait in a stuffy building, or breathe in cigarettes, or stand. (Original) В чем смысл второго пропускного пункта? Почему нельзя проводить человека нормально и помочь ему с сумками? Работники с наглым видом стоят и чуть ли не кидаются. Но в некоторое время там никого нет и проходить может, кто хочет. Водители автобусов проверяют пассажиров перед отъездом, так в чем смысл этого пропускного пункта?? Только мешает людям нормально попрощаться. Лавочки на улице только для курения, на улице негде сидеть, только на "перроне", куда пускают только по билетам, то есть либо ждать в душном здании, либо дышать сигаретами, либо стоять.

(Translated by Google) The bus driver 09/08/2025 Volgograd-Donetsk, constantly made unscheduled stops for 10 minutes. And one for 40, to eat in the canteen. Because of his hungry stomach and incredibly slow chewing muscle, the bus was late to the destination by an hour (Original) Водитель автобуса 08.09.2025 Волгоград-Донецк, постоянно делал внеплановые остановки по 10 минут. И одну на 40, чтобы покушать в столовой. Из-за его голодного желудка и невероятно медленной жевательной мышцы, автобус опоздал к месту прибытия на час

(Translated by Google) It's constantly dirty, and the drivers are completely informal. They're making money along the way, disregarding the comfort of passengers who bought their tickets at the ticket office... (Original) Постоянная грязь, водители общаются сугубо НА ТЫ. По дороге зарабатывают себе в карман, не считаясь с удобством пассажиров, купивших будет в кассе...

(Translated by Google) They don't answer the phone no matter how many times you call. I wanted to warn you to wait for me for 5-7 minutes. But no one answered. As a result, my bus left. Thank you (Original) Не берут трубки, сколько не звони. Я хотела предупредить, чтобы подождали меня минут5-7. Но никто не ответил. Как итог, мой автобус уехал. Спасибо

(Translated by Google) The station itself is, of course, normal. But I don’t understand the surrounding area. Parking for cars in the style of a la I poured shaben and this is not a green zone. What kind of homeless area is there near the station? Some ruined shops. The station area itself and normal security and all that .guys, I’m from Volzhsky, look at our bus station. The entire surrounding area is clean. Volgograd, you’re the capital of the region, there’s no need to disgrace yourself. (Original) Вокзал то конечно сам норм.но прилегающая территория я непойму.парковка для машин в стиле а-ля я шебень насыпал и это не зелёная зона.около вокзала че за бомжатник.какие то разрушенные магазины.сама территория вокзала да норм.безопасность и все такое.ребята я из волжского посмотрите на наш автовокзал .вокруг чистота на всей прилегающей территории.волгоград вы столица области ненадо позориться.

Needs a little bit of maintenance, but still, a good place to watch the statue of the man who tried to uplift the workers.

Monument to Lenin. Not a bad place. Favorite for tourists who like history and taking photos .

(Translated by Google) Standard monument to V.I. Lenin, you can see a lot of these. Behind the monument is the end of Pavlov's house and a very beautiful colonnade. (Original) Стандартный памятник В.И. Ленину, таких можно немало увидеть. За памятником торец дома Павлова и очень красивая колоннада.

(Translated by Google) A little bit of history 😊 The monument was opened in 1960. The sculpture was made at the Mytishchi art casting plant in Moscow. The square on which this figure stands is now called the same name as the monument, and before that it was called St. Nicholas Church (before the revolution), then the Square of January 9th (so named in the 20s, in memory of Bloody Sunday). After WWII - Defense Square, in honor of a group of Soviet soldiers who held one of the residential buildings (Pavlov’s house) for 58 days. The monument and the surrounding area are kept in order, which is good news. After all, this is our story. (Original) Немножко из истории 😊 Памятник открыт в 1960 году. Скульптура изготовлена на Мытищинском заводе художественного литья в Москве. Площадь, на которой стоит сия фигура, сейчас называется одноименно памятнику, а до этого носила название Никольской церкви (до революции), затем площадь 9-го Января (названа так в 20-х годах, в память о Кровавом воскресенье). После ВОВ - площадь Обороны, в честь группы советских бойцов, которые 58 дней удерживали один из жилых домов (дом Павлова). Памятник и прилегающая площадь содержатся в порядке, что радует. Как-никак это наша история.

(Translated by Google) Large beautiful area around Monument Lenin is also standing. (Original) Большая красивая площадь вокруг Памятника Ленин также стоит.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful, large monument to Lenin on a beautiful background. Lenin is a classic standing man, pointing to a bright future. (Original) Красивый, большой памятник Ленину на красивом фоне. Ленин классический стоящий, в светлое будущее указующий.

(Translated by Google) Before Khrushchev, Stalin stood here. But one fine night, under the auspices of de-Stalinization, it was demolished. For some time there was only a pedestal - a stump. Since then the area has been called "hemp" (Original) До хрущева тут стоял Сталин. Но в одну прекрасную ночь под эгидой дэсталинизации его снесли. Некоторое время был только постамент - пенёк. С тех пор район называют "пеньки"

(Translated by Google) An unusual monument in the form of fire, although there is one in Novosibirsk too, but still my favorite historical value of Russia (Original) Необычный памятник в виде огня хотя и в Новосибирске тоже есть такой но всё равно мой самый любимый историческая ценность России

(Translated by Google) The Eternal Flame was lit in memory of my relatives who died defending their hometown - Stalingrad. But the obelisk was erected in memory of the defenders of Red Tsaritsyn. There have been proposals for a long time: to perpetuate with the help of this monument the memory of ALL those who died in the fratricidal Civil War. This will probably happen someday. (Original) Вечный Огонь зажгли в память и о моих родственниках, погибавших, защищая родной город - Сталинград. Но обелиск поставлен в память о защитниках Красного Царицына. Давно поступали предложения: увековечить с помощью этого монумента память ВСЕХ погибших в братоубийственной Гражданской войне. Наверное, когда-нибудь так и будет.

(Translated by Google) Eternal flame! Located in the city center. A must visit. (Original) Вечный огонь! Находится в центре города. Обязательно к посещению.

(Translated by Google) I was very impressed (Original) Остался очень впечатлен

(Translated by Google) Good evening. The eternal flame is post number one. High school students are periodically in this position. When the changing of the guard takes place, many spectators gather. (Original) Добрый вечер. Вечный огонь - пост номер один. Старшеклассники периодически находятся на этом посту. Когда идет смена караула, собирается много зрителей.

(Translated by Google) Great place for a walk with the family (Original) Отличное место для прогулок с семьёй

Good

This alley connects the main square of Volgograd (currently there's a new Orthodox Church being built) with the central part of Volga embankment. It's a nice manicured park with many monuments and fallen soldier plaques with a obelisk in the middle in front of which is an eternal flame. Nice and safe area to walk both, day and night.

(Translated by Google) This is probably the very center of the city. Alley dedicated to the Heroes of the Soviet Union. There is an eternal flame here, and a poplar tree that survived the Battle of Stalingrad. A beautiful, memorable place. (Original) Наверное это самый центр города. Аллея, посвященная Героям Советского Союза. Здесь находится вечный огонь, и тополь, переживший Сталинградскую битву. Красивое, памятное место.

(Translated by Google) Do I need to say anything? The Alley of Heroes is simply a wonderful place; I often walked there when passing through Volgograd. It's especially great when musicians play somewhere along the alley. It's clean, there are plenty of trash bins, and vending machines. The only downside is that some of the swings and playgrounds aren't in the best condition. (Original) Нужно ли что то писать? Аллея героев просто замечательное место, часто гулял находясь проездом в Волгограде. Особенно здорово когда где нибудь на аллее играют музыканты. Чисто, мусорок много, автоматы с напитками, из минусов только что некоторые качели и детские площадки не в самом лучшем виде

(Translated by Google) Reconstructed. It became cozy and bright. You can have a nice time (Original) Отреконструирована. Стала уютной, светлой. Можно провести приятно время

(Translated by Google) If you're in Volgograd, take a walk along the Alley of Heroes. You can sit on a bench in the shade of trees. Be sure to try Volgograd ice cream, it is delicious. (Original) Если будете в Волгограде, прогуляйтесь по Аллее героев. Вы можете посидеть на лавачке в тени деревьев. Обязательно попробуйте волгоградское мороженое, оно восхитительно.

(Translated by Google) The Alley of Heroes is considered the very center of Volgograd. Here you will see monuments dedicated to the Heroes of the Soviet Union, awarded this title during the Battle of Stalingrad, as well as to the residents of Volgograd - Heroes of the Soviet Union, Heroes of Russia and Full Knights of the Order of Glory. There are many iconic places on the Alley of Heroes: the eternal flame to the fallen heroes, the poplar tree that survived the Battle of Stalingrad, the zero kilometer and a small chapel. We love walking along the Alley, the photos here turn out wonderful (Original) Аллея героев считается самым центром Волгограда. Здесь вы увидите монументы, посвященные Героям Советского Союза, удостоенным этого звания во время Сталинградской битвы, а также жителям Волгограда - Героям Советского Союза, Героям России и Полным кавалерам Ордена Славы. На Аллее Героев много знаковых мест: и вечный огонь павшим героям, и тополь, переживший Сталинградскую битву, и нулевой километр и небольшая часовня. Любим гулять по Аллее, фотографии здесь получаются замечательными

(Translated by Google) Interesting museum, very close to the station. Located in a 1903 mansion built in Russian style. There are many exhibits covering the period of the First World War and the Civil War, the defense of Tsaritsyn, the history of the Cossacks, and the White emigration. There is a cutaway view of an armored train. A separate exhibition is dedicated to the novel by M.A. Sholokhov "Quiet Don". The visit may take quite some time, depending on your interest in the topic. Cost 150 rubles. (Original) Интересный музей, совсем рядом с вокзалом. Располагается в особняке 1903 года, построенного в русском стиле. Много экспонатов охватывающих период Первой мировой и Гражданской войн, оборону Царицына, историю казачества, Белой эмиграции. Есть бронепоезд в разрезе. Отдельная экспозиция посвящена роману М.А. Шолохова «Тихий Дон». Посещение может занять достаточное количество времени, в зависимости от вашего интереса к этой теме. Стоимость 150 рублей.

(Translated by Google) We were there on Saturday with the whole family. The museum is very conveniently located (near the train station). We came in the morning, there were no people at the ticket office. The nice woman at the ticket office was very friendly. When we asked about the excursion (we were two adults, a student girl and an 11-year-old girl), she immediately invited a guide. The excursion was conducted by a young man Smusev (I may have gotten his last name wrong - sorry 🙏) Viktor. A very enthusiastic young man. He told the story in an accessible and interesting way (as a teacher, I understand how difficult it is to tell stories with such a different age audience), but he did a great job! The museum is small, but interesting! The museum is re (Original) Были в субботу всей семьей. Музей очень удобно расположен (около вокзала). Пришли с утра, в кассе народу не было. Милая женщина на кассе очень доброжелательна. Когда спросили про экскурсию (нас: двое взрослых, девушка студентка и девочка 11 лет) тут же пригласила экскурсовода. Экскурсию проводил молодой человек Смусев ( фамилию могла переврать - извините 🙏) Виктор. Очень увлеченный молодой человек. Рассказывал доступно и интересно (как педагог понимаю, как трудно рассказать имея такую разную возрастную аудиторию), но он справился прекрасно! Музей небольшой, но интересный! Музей ре

(Translated by Google) I couldn't get into the museum. It was a day off. It's a very cozy place. Everything is done with love. If they still take such good care of this place, it means history has deeply touched people's souls. And their memories still remember these moments. You can get there by public transport. I walked. The city is beautiful. Many old houses have been preserved. This means the city was prosperous. The people are amazing. (Original) Не смогла попасть в музей . был выходной. Очень уютное место . все сделано с любовью. Если до сих пор так заботятся об этом месте. Значит история глубоко прошлась по душам людей. И память еще помнит эти моменты. Добраться можно на городском транспорте. Я гуляла пешком. Город красивый . много старых домов сохранились . это говорит , что город был процветающий. Люди удивительные.

(Translated by Google) A very interesting museum. It contains objects and documents dating back to 1915-1920, mainly about the First World War. As a non-history buff during my school years, it was doubly interesting to me. The ticket costs only 100 rubles + 50 rubles for the opportunity to take photographs. I recommend everyone to visit this museum, you will like it. (Original) Очень интересный музей. В нем собраны предметы и документы, относящиеся к 1915-1920 гг, в основном о Первой мировой войне. Мне, как нелюбителю истории в школьные годы, было вдвойне интересно. Билет стоит всего 100 р + 50 р за возможность фотографировать. Рекомендую всем посетить этот музей, вам понравится.

(Translated by Google) The museum pleased me with the good attitude of the employees and the inexpensive tickets. For an adult only 100 rubles, schoolchildren are free. Small, cozy and, perhaps, nothing more. After visiting there were no ecstatic memories left. There are simply no exhibits here that will be remembered. I repeat once again that this only applies to the exhibition itself; the museum workers told a lot of interesting things. You can walk around the entire museum in about 20 minutes, but it’s worth a visit. (Original) Музей порадовал хорошим отношением работников и недорогим билетом. Для взрослого всего 100 рублей, школьники бесплатно. Небольшой, уютный и, пожалуй, больше ничего. После посещения восторженных воспоминаний не осталось. Здесь просто нет экспонатов, которые запомнятся. Еще раз повторю, что это касается только самой экспозиции, работники музея рассказали много интересного. Весь музей можно обойти минут за 20, но посетить стоит.

(Translated by Google) Small museum, photography for an additional fee. Children under 16 years old have free admission. On Victory Day, you could send a greeting card from the museum to any point in our Motherland completely free of charge. In one room you can touch the exhibits. If you go with a child, he will be bored. With a guide, everything becomes much clearer. (Original) Небольшой музей, фотосъемка за доп.плату. Детям до 16 лет вход бесплатный. В День Победы из музея совершенно бесплатно можно было отправить поздравительную открытку в любую точку нашей Родины. В одном зале экспонаты можно потрогать. Если идти с ребёнком, то ему будет скучно. С экскурсоводом всё становится гораздо понятнее.

(Translated by Google) We visited on September 1st, the excursion was conducted in the form of a quest game, the child was pleased. Very interesting. Thank you very much to the museum staff👍 (Original) Посещали 1го сентября, экскурсию провели в виде игры квест, ребенок остался доволен. Очень интересно. Спасибо большое работникам музея👍

Not far from the city centre and you can get most things here even shoe repairing. Carry a jacket when going there as its proximity to the river makes it very windy and chilly

You can get almost everything you need there besides furniture, lovely environment and a nice park nearby.

It is the best place for shopping and i hope we can find lot of things there

everything is nice but u shouldnt sell 20 rb choc bar in 120.......

Basic, compacted and small. Still good to buy essentials

Good mall for it's size, but no restaurants here!

Great mall. This mall have many shops, market and IMAX theatre.

Most memorable place in Volgograd. It speaks about great Pavlov. There're vehicles which are used in second world war. Mostly made in Germany and Russia. And visitor can see the scenes of mighty second world war.

A proof of the human power to survive, defend mother land Good to read more about the story of this building

Great glory of Red Army.Love to Russian people

iv'e heard stories about pavlov's house, like how at night the tracer fire from the building was so intense it turned night to day and how the german commander sent an entire panzer division to destroy the defenders but they saw them coming, the germans codenamed it castle

Pavlov's House was a fortified apartment building which Red Army defenders held for 60 days against a heavy Wehrmacht offensive during the Battle of Stalingrad. The siege lasted from 27 September to 25 November 1942 and eventually the Red Armymanaged to relieve it from the siege. It gained its popular name from Sergeant Yakov Pavlov, who commanded the platoon that seized the building and defended it during the long battle.

This is where you smell the history, where you see it vividly in your imagination. So nice that they kept it as a museum without touching it.

Really recommend it one of a kind place to visit and feel what the old Stalingrad felt like

(Translated by Google) Modern, stylish, comfortable - this is how you can characterize the Yuzhny city hall in the Voroshilovsky district of Volgograd. A pleasant loft-style interior, large screens, excellent sound, a comfortable area for a coffee break - all these are definite advantages of this site. However, the chairs are not very comfortable - at an event longer than 2 hours, the back and back of the body get pretty tired :) Otherwise, everything is great! (Original) Современный, стильный, комфортный - так можно охарактеризовать сити-холл "Южный" в Ворошиловском районе Волгограда. Приятный интерьер в стиле лофт, большие экраны, отличный звук, удобная зона для кофе-брейка - все это однозначные плюсы данной площадки. Однако, стулья не слишком удобны - на мероприятии длиннее 2 часов спина и задняя поверхность туловища изрядно устают :) В остальном, все отлично!

(Translated by Google) I didn’t like the service, dirty floors, dirty sofas at the reception, smell of cigarettes, at least install a smoking room in another place. Just terrible. (Original) Обслуживание не понравилось, грязные полы, диванчике у ресепшена грязные, запах сигарет, установите хоть курилку в другом месте. Просто ужасс.

(Translated by Google) A good place for business meetings, celebrations, two large screens, a stage, everything is there. The tables are round and seat 8 people. In principle, everything is ready for events. (Original) Хорошее место для проведения деловых встреч, торжеств, два больших экрана, сцена, оборудование все есть. Столики круглые, рассчитаны на 8 человек. В принципе все готово для проведения мероприятий.

(Translated by Google) We celebrated the New Year's corporate party. The food is terrible. Everything is cold and stale, winded. The poor pepper had already wilted on the pizza. For 800 rubles I got one glass of wine, a washed-out “slice” of pizza and a small sandwich with fish and cucumber. Decide for yourself whether you need such a corporate event... In this wonderful place (Original) Отмечали корпоратив нового года. Еда ужасная. Все холодное и несвежее, заветренное. На пицце бедный перец аж завял. За 800 р получила один бокал вина, заветренный "кусочек"пиццы и небольшой бутербродик с рыбкой и огурчиком. Решайте сами нужен вам такой корпоратив... В этом прекрасном месте

(Translated by Google) We were at a concert in an area with tables, you can order food before the performance, without knowing about it you ate in advance)) so we only ordered coffee and cheesecake, the second one turned out to be very sweet. The prices are high, of course, the public is all in pathos. The hall is not very comfortable for spectators; it is too elongated a rectangle. It was very hot in the room. (Original) Были на концерте в зоне со столами, можно заказать еду перед выступлением, не зная об этом поели заранее )) поэтому заказали только кофе и чизкейк, второй очень сладкий оказался. Цены высокие конечно, публика вся на пафосе. Зал не очень удобный для зрителей, слишком вытянутый прямоугольник. Было очень жарко в помещении.

(Translated by Google) There is only one owner of the Volgograd restaurant. But...In City Hall, the windy Olivier killed me, I think decent establishments don’t allow themselves to do this. The waiters can't cope with the room. The meat was tough. The kitchen is so-so. Although they said that the best chef in the city works there. And so the score: a point for the spacious hall and stylish furnishings, parking, friendly staff. Just three at a stretch. The prices do not correspond to the actual level of service...Guys, work on yourselves... (Original) Хозяин с рестораном Волгоград один. Но...В Сити Холл заветренный Оливье меня убил, я думаю приличные заведения себе этого не позволяют. Официанты с залом не справляются. Мясо принесли жесткое. Кухня так себе. Хотя сказали, что там работает лучший повар города. И так оценка: бал за просторный зал и стильную обстановку, стоянку, приветливый коллектив. Всего три с натяжкой. Цены не соответствует фактическому уровню обслуживания...Ребята работайте над собой...

(Translated by Google) It’s a good place, our organization holds corporate events there almost every year. Good cuisine, but there is a huge drawback... The waiters just clear the tables and it doesn’t matter if you finished the dish or didn’t even have time to try it, the only way out is not to get up from the table, and I’ll tell you this is not convenient... (Original) Хорошее место, почти каждый год там проходят корпоративы у нашей организации. Хорошая кухня, но есть огромный минус... Официанты прям зачищают столы и не важно доел ты блюдо или даже не успел его попробовать, выход только один не вставать из-за столика, а это прям таки скажу не удобно...

(Translated by Google) We were here for a concert. There are no complaints about the concert: the sound is good, the hall is small, but for a chamber concert it’s just right, the seats for the audience are quite crowded, but not critical, sitting is quite comfortable. But the building, the atmosphere inside, is something. The entire foyer is occupied by fur coats hanging for sale; you have to squeeze through a narrow passage. Inside, everything looks as if it hasn’t changed for 30 years. It’s a pity that such a building in the city center looks more like a train station from the 90s. (Original) Были здесь на концерте. К концерту претензий нет: звук хороший, зал небольшой, но для камерного концерта самое то, зрительские места расположены достаточно скучено, но не критично, сидеть вполне комфортно. Но вот здание, обстановка внутри - это что-то. Все фойе занято развешанными на продажу шубами, протискиваться приходится по узкому проходу. Внутри все выглядит так, словно не менялось уже лет 30. Жаль, что такое здание в центре города больше похоже на вокзал из 90-х.

(Translated by Google) A very beautiful semicircular building. Built in 1957. For some reason they call it "toilet" (Original) Очень красивое полукруглое здание. Построено в 1957 году. Почему-то его называют «унитаз»

(Translated by Google) Although I did not enter, the decoration of the building is also attractive. (Original) 入場はしていませんが、建物の装飾も魅力です

(Translated by Google) Very good acoustics in the hall. The stage is very close, perfect for contact with the artists. Suitable for soulful concerts. The building certainly needs renovation. (Original) Очень хорошая аккустика в зале. Сцена очень близко, прекрасно для контакта с артистами. Подходит для душевных концертов. Здание конечно требует ремонта.

(Translated by Google) The acoustics here are quite strange (you can hear everything that happens in the hall better than what is on the stage), but the events are very good. (Original) Тут довольно странная акустика (слышно всё, что происходит в зале лучше, чем то, что на сцене), зато мероприятия очень хорошие проходят.

(Translated by Google) We were at the Christmas tree with children, a small hall, wooden seats like in a theater, polite stewards. Nothing much has changed since my childhood. The Bremen Town Musicians had a fun performance, children played, and the presenter entertained the children before the performance. The costumes are new, the scenery is interesting. I liked it (Original) были на елке с детьми, небольшой зал,деревянные сиденья как в театре, вежливые распорядители.С моего детства особо ничего не поменялось. Бременские музыканты был веселый спектакль,играли дети,ведущая перед спектаклем развлекала деток. костюмы новые, декорации интересные.понравилось

(Translated by Google) Yes, as an architectural monument in the Stalinist Empire style and a symbol of the past Soviet not-so-bad years, it should be preserved. But for the modern world this is already a very inconvenient room. Once upon a time, young and agile Komsomol members quickly ran up to the 4th floor, not noticing the steps. Yesterday, when these Komsomol members were already over 80 years old, they could barely climb the very uncomfortable, sloping steps on a not very steep slope to watch the concert. Everything is dusty and old. It is not clear how it was planned during construction to clean the walls and ceilings at a height of 15 meters? Also, don't forget to bring toilet paper with you. This is not a shopping center, they don’t make money here on paper. Well, the state has long been violet about culture (Original) Да, как памятник архитектуры в стиле сталинского ампира и символ прошлых советских не самых плохих лет, он должен сохраниться. Но для современного мира это уже очень неудобное помещение. Когда-то молодые и ловкие комсомольцы быстро взбегали на 4 этаж, не замечая ступенек. Вчера, когда этим комсомольцами уже по 80 с лишним, еле поднимались на очень неудобные, скошенные ступени на не по сильную крутизну, чтобы посмотреть концерт. Всё в пыли, старое. Не понятно, как планировалось при строительстве делать уборку стен и потолков на 15 метровой высоте? Также не забудьте взять с собой туалетную бумагу. Это не торговый центр, здесь на бумагу не зарабатывают. Ну, а государству давно на культуру фиолетово

Many performing groups, creativity!!!

(Translated by Google) Previously, there was a popular cinema here, but now it is a real forge of stars for our city and all of Russia! (Original) Раньше здесь был популярный кинотеатр, но зато теперь, это настоящая кузница звёзд для нашего города и всей России!

(Translated by Google) We love this leisure center very much, the child takes vocal classes. There is a very good teacher here, Inna Vladimirovna. Only in winter it is very cold in the hall. Children study in jackets. (Original) Очень любим этот досуговый центр, ребёнок занимается вокалом. Тут очень хороший педагог Инна Владимировна. Только зимой в зале очень холодно. Дети занимаются в куртках.

(Translated by Google) Motherland, one name remained, they sold fur coats there, there was a trust bank nearby, it was advertised by a Hollywood actor from the movie Die Hard, trust translated from English is reliable and it fell apart, there is no monolith in us, unity, morality is lost, Russia can only be defended people happy with everything, tearing their throats that everything is fine with us... (Original) Родина,одно название осталось,шубы там продавали,рядом был траст-банк, его рекламировал голливудский актер из фильма Крепкий орешек ,trust в переводе с английского надёжный и тот развалился,нет в нас монолита,уни сона,мораль потеряна,Россию могут защищать только довольные всем люди,разрывая глотку ,что у нас всё хорошо...

(Translated by Google) An old Soviet cinema, for those who want to return to the USSR. (Original) Старый советский кинотеатр, для тех кто хочет вернутся в СССР.

(Translated by Google) This is not a cinema, but a center of culture and leisure. There are various clubs and sections for children and adults. For children there is definitely dancing, drawing, chess, and acrobatics. (Original) Это не кинотеатр, а центр культуры и досуга. Там различные кружки и секции для детей и взрослых. Для детей точно есть танцы, рисование, шахматы, акробатика.

(Translated by Google) You don’t choose your homeland!.. It could be better, but we have what we have? But it could have been worse. Look what's happening in America and Europe! It's a nightmare!!! And so, to be honest, hand on heart, it still depends on ourselves!!!!!! (Original) Родину не выбирают!.. Могло бы быть лучше, но, имеем то, что имеем? Но, могло бы быть и хуже. Смотрите, что в Америке и Европе происходит! Кошмар же!!! А так, если по-честному, положа руку на сердце, всё же зависит от нас самих!!!!!!
