Military operation "Citadel".

Golovna
Suspicion

At the front part we approached the Citadel from the side - from the garrison center and the ramparts of the Kobrin fortification.

And in this part, take a quick look around the Citadel - the central island, where the main museum objects and monuments of the memorial complex are located.

Surrounding her, it seems, the place also lay down before her.

The post is not an encyclopedia on the history of the defense of the fort (everything can be read in Merezhi), so I will not show everything, but the greatest detail that fits in the post.

This campaign also lost the Similar Fort, on the outskirts of the Citadel, and the ruins of the hospital on Hospital Island.

I’ll try to show it to Rashta in dotted lines.

Well, let’s go through the front entrance of the memorial, which is similar to the side.
Head entrance.

In the distance - "shtik" - monument at the Citadel

9. The form in the assortment is less than radyansky, with the same newfangled tolerance in the appearance of Wehrmacht outfits and signs.

True, the assortment is great - from tankers to NKVS. With shoulder straps, with buttonholes. 10. Right hand from the main road, near the depths, there is a cafe “Citadel”, located at the site of the 44th field bakery garrison fortification.

Having a cold drink there

draft beer

, poiv. The hedgehog is no worse, the place is better. 11. “Shtik” is the main dominant feature of the Fort, visible from the rich city of the place, and also from the station viaduct.

Far away - the barracks with the Kholm gate. 12. Order from the obelisk-shtik in 1971. inspired such a monumental composition. In front of her is the Eternal Fire.

13. Closer.

Behind the Eternal Fire are slabs with the names of all the heroic places

Radyansky Union

, further away - the ruins of the Engineering Department (1941 - barracks of the 75th reconnaissance battalion).

14. Let's look back.

There - waking up to the museum

Brest Fort

(there will be an offensive post behind it), in 1941 - barracks 33rd.

engineer regiment.

15. Entrust them with the ruins of the White Palace.

She herself was born here in 1917-18.

Trotsky was in negotiations about a truce from the Kaiser's Empire, and G.Ya.

28. You can go around the Hospital Island using the left-hand path and stop at the gate of the border zone.

And behind me, behind the scenes, is the Beresttya Museum, an archaeological museum with fragments of excavations.

Dedications to the old place built through the life of the mega-forte, the predecessor of Brest - having visited these places.

I don’t care about anyone, I wanted to go around the fort with more respect, and there is Varandey and here in his annals there is a name.

29. Let’s turn back along this very bridge to the Citadel and go along the two branches of the Bug.

30. We came to the arrow of two sleeves - Mukhavtsa and Buga.

Navpaki is a border outpost.

Not a museum, for reference.

Livoruch - Fr.

Prikordonny, about 300 m away - Poland.

31. In front is the Terespol Gate, the front line of the first assault on the fort of 22 rubles.

The Germans broke through them into the territory and then, with a counterattack, were isolated in the club and officers' quarters after the soldiers had recovered from the first riot.

33. The river flows quietly and peacefully through the Western Bug.

The axis is so vin dzyurchav and early lies of 22 chervnya.

In the distance is a small town.

People began to steal their lives and villages from ancient times.

The first to see the settlement is the system of earthen ramparts that was built around the settlement.

Later they were distinguished by wooden palisades, and even later by stone walls and vaults with battlements.

There will begin to be magnificent castles, with high and great walls, battlements, bastions, redoubts and trenches filled with water.

What is a citadel? When did she show up? Let's try to adapt to this diet.

Fortress-citadel: what is it?

The greatest citadels were built near the sites of the ancient Indian civilization.

These intense measures kidnapped people and secured the strength and power of the state.

To confirm that a citadel is a citadel, let’s look at the etymology of this concept.

At the translation from

Italian language

"Citadel" (cittadella) is a small fortified town or village. True, there is another version of the word. Some descendants associate this term with the Latin word "civis", which translates as "hulk".

In terms of architecture, the citadel is called a well-fortified fortress that protects the place, or the inner, most reliable part of the castle, in which residents could gather at the extreme end.

On June 5, 1943, a massive strategic offensive of the Wehrmacht forces began on the positions of the Radyan troops on the Kursk bridgehead.

This military operation was named in history - the “Citadel” plan. The German headquarters wanted to maximize the sharpening of the enemy's forces and their extreme poverty. The command of the Red Army succeeded in organizing a competent and successful defense.

And, six days after the start of the operation, the situation for the Germans was extremely sad.

P_dsumkom

offensive operation The citadel has become a new failure for Hitler's troops. At the end...

Now you know what a citadel is and how it differs from other fortification elements.

This is the final part of the fort, which has been fortified to serve as the remaining barrier for the Moscow garrison, which is defending itself.

We arrived at the Citadel Fort Museum on one wonderful, sleepy, bright day, having strolled around the outskirts of Budva.

I appreciate that we were blessed to live near Budva.

For myself, I definitely realized that if so many people hadn’t gone into the middle, they wouldn’t have gone there. I can’t say what’s worse tsikave mistse

.

In our opinion, it is the same as in other old places of the Adriatic coast.

If you have already visited the fortress of Boka Kotorska Bay, I don’t recommend coming here - it just doesn’t make sense.

Ale mi boules at the Citadel Fort Museum were the first to go through similar spores, and also hung around in places.

On the walls of the Citadel there is a carved picture on a stone that consists of two fishes.

The local residents revealed that they remember the two deceased.

It’s true that there was a legend, since there lived a couple of married people and everyone opposed the union.

Out of hopelessness, the stinks rushed from the abyss of the sea, and from that hour they were no longer heard.

The price for entry seems to be fixed.

Paying 5 euros for two is not worth it.

The upper tier of the defense of the fort at Sudaku.

Left to right: Kutowa (16) and Consular Tower (17) (Consular Castle), Georgiyivska (18), Upper Nameless (19) and Dozorna (20) Tower.

Below the schiloma there are surpluses of defensive sporuds (22).

There is a lower temple on consoles (23).

In the foreground, right-handed, are the ruins of the barracks of the Kirillian Novgorod Regiment (29).

Well, the axis I have turned back to where I started – to the “wrong” wall at the top of the fort.

It is not for nothing that the Donjon is called the “Consular Castle” - it was at one time the residence of the consuls of Soldai, who were soon changing.

The vital character of the design was clear.

The bud had saved two stones.

One of the tiers, instead of the loophole, has straight-cut windows (one on the same side and one on the opposite side).

This is the day of the Consular Veil.

The look of miracles.

The castle is immediately covered by Kutova Vezha (16).

"It has “three and a half” walls – from the entrance side it opens to the inner courtyard on both tiers. View of Kutova vezha (16) from the courtyard. The inner door itself is a rectangular maidan with thick walls with embrasures. The adjacent part has a secret door protruding from it (it is walled up) for security purposes.

From the side of the building, adjoining the buttress of the donjon, the front part is rebuilt with embrasures and an evil-like passage.

Through this one you could walk through the inner door.

View from the front of the building.

The entrance is at the inner door - right-handed.

St. George's Tower (18) is another “hybrid”, which is “three and a half walls”.

At the end of the Kutovoya vezha (16), the fourth wall completely encloses the perimeter of the vezha.

Ale only on the lower tier.

The closed version had a chapel with a bas-relief, which is identified as St. George the Victorious.

These names are old.

St. George's Tower (18) View from the middle of the citadel.

Not only Georgy the Victorious brings the Sudak fortress to Moscow.

The currently existing wall is torn off near the upper nameless citadel (19).

And here is a very familiar element – ​​the teeth, like a “dovetail”.

I don’t know if it’s true that the tower has such small teeth (and it was cut to the very top), they are not at all similar to a sieve.

Why not?
