Siege of Leningrad - Reproducer, World War II memorial monument in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
The cast iron and marble reproducer monument stands as a representation of communication equipment that delivered news during the Leningrad siege.
During the 872-day siege from 1941 to 1944, these reproducers transmitted vital information, poetry readings, and music to Leningrad residents.
Through the monument's speakers, visitors can hear recordings of Olga Bergholz's poetry and Shostakovich's Symphony No. 7, performed during the blockade.
The monument maintains its original function by broadcasting historical audio content daily between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM.
This reproducer represents one of 1,500 street speakers that remained operational throughout the entire siege, connecting isolated citizens.
