T-34 Model 1942
Sowjetisches Ehrenmal (Soviet War Memorial)
Straße des 17. Juni, Großer Tiergarten
Berlin, September 2011

“The memorial was built from stonework taken from the destroyed Reich Chancellery. Built in a style similar to other Soviet World War II monuments that were once found all over the former Eastern Bloc, the memorial takes the form of a curved stoa topped by a large statue of a Soviet soldier. It is set in landscaped gardens and flanked by two Red Army ML-20 152mm gun-howitzer artillery pieces and two T-34 tanks. Behind the memorial is an outdoor museum showing photographs of the memorial's construction and giving a guide to other memorials in the Berlin area.” (Soviet War Memorial, Wikipedia)
