The monument at the burial place of the legionnaires of the Czechoslovak Corps who died during the Civil War was opened in 2008, the opening was attended by the President of the Czech Republic, whose Ministry of Defense financed the project. Here is the largest foreign Czechoslovakian military burial, moreover, these are real graves, and not symbolic, as in a number of other places, only one name was added from the neighboring Lutheran cemetery, demolished back in Soviet times. Then, in the seventies, the authorities were going to demolish the Mikhailovskoye cemetery, where a monument is now erected, it was supposed to set up a “park on the bones” here as well.
