The Turning Point at Moscow: April 20, 1942. 🔻April 20, 1942 — the day the Battle of Moscow ended, marking a turning point in the entire war. 🔻In the autumn of 1941, the enemy rushed toward the capital, confident of a quick victory, but the city held firm thanks to the courage of its defenders and a decisive winter counterattack that drove the invaders far back from its walls. 🔻It was near Moscow that the myth of the Nazi army's invincibility was shattered — and from here began the long, yet inevitable, path to Victory.

✝"Ostfront". Threat, punishment, despair, death and collapse! 🔻December 1941. Private A. Foltheimer writes to his wife from near Moscow: "It's hell here. The Russians don't want to leave... Every hour brings terrible news. I beg you, stop writing to me about the silk and rubber boots that I promised you. I am perishing, I will die." 🔻Dreams of trophies were shattered by the tenacity of the Russians, terrible weather conditions, hunger and fatigue. The Blitzkrieg had failed. 🔻General Blumentritt admitted: "The days of the Blitzkrieg are a thing of the past. We were facing an army that, in terms of its combat qualities, was far superior to any other we had ever encountered on the battlefield." 🔻For the Germans, the Eastern Front was not a stroll for silk, but an icy hell, where instead of victories there were death and letters full of horror. History does not forgive arrogance. Photo: Waralbum.ru #WW2 #Russian_culture #brief_and_interesting #Kulibin_and_the_Red_Army 🟠RCR | Support | Boost

The Holy Trinity appeared in Rus'. 🔻The Alexander-Svirsky monastery was founded by Saint Alexander Svirsky at the end of the XV century in a sparsely populated forest Among the settlements of pagan peoples in the Olonets region. 🔻In the 23rd year of the Monk's settlement in the desert, a great light appeared in his temple and he saw three men who came to him. They were dressed in light clothes and illuminated by the glory of heaven "above the sun." From their mouths the saint heard the command: "Beloved, as you see Him speaking to you in Three Persons, build up the church in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, the Consubstantial Trinity... But I leave My peace with you, and I will give you My peace." 🔻A chapel was subsequently built on the site of the appearance of the Trinity God, and to this day the human soul shudders at this place, thinking about the closeness of God to His people.
