Pavlov's House, Historic fortified building in Volgograd, Russia.

The four-story apartment building features thick brick walls, reinforced windows, and strategic observation points overlooking Lenin Square and its surroundings.

During the Battle of Stalingrad in 1942, Sergeant Yakov Pavlov led a platoon of Soviet soldiers in defending this building against German forces for 60 days.

The building stands as a memorial to Soviet resistance, with commemorative plaques and restored sections displaying wartime damage alongside residential apartments.

Visitors can access the site by taking public transportation to Lenin Square, where guided tours explain the military defense strategies used during the siege.

The defenders created an intricate network of underground passages connecting the building to Soviet supply lines while maintaining control of their strategic position.
