Valley of Glory, World War II memorial in Mozhaysky District, Russia.
The Valley of Glory extends across a significant portion of the Moscow Oblast, featuring monuments and commemorative structures dedicated to World War II soldiers.
During the Battle of Moscow from 1942 to 1943, this location served as a critical battlefield where Soviet forces engaged in defensive operations against German troops.
The memorial grounds contain burial sites for 7,000 soldiers and a memorial wall inscribed with names of those who gave their lives during the conflict.
Visitors can reach the Valley of Glory by taking the Minsk Highway to kilometer marker 141 and following the road for 15 kilometers toward Semyonovskoye village.
Before receiving its current name, this memorial site was known as the Valley of Death, reflecting the intense military confrontations that occurred in this area.
