Lysaya Gora, War memorial in Sovetsky District, Volgograd, Russia.
The memorial complex stands at 140.6 meters height with a stone obelisk marking the strategic military position during the Second World War.
Between September 1942 and January 1943, German and Soviet forces engaged in a 140-day battle for control of this strategic height near Volgograd.
The 20-meter obelisk, erected in 1968, represents the determination and valor of Soviet soldiers who defended their homeland during critical battles.
Visitors can access educational displays and guided tours throughout the memorial complex, which contains preserved wartime structures and fortifications.
The mountain surface remains unvegetated due to sandy soil composition and strong winds that continuously remove sand from its surface.
