    But there wasn’t enough money for a whole monument? Such a thunder-commander in chief was, and only a relatively small bust. But it’s better than nothing!
    The war of 12 years, one of the sad pages in the history of Russia!

        Guys and a girl !!! The main thing is not size wassat you can build a monument over three quarters and people will spit, or you can screw a plate to the building and constantly fresh flowers will be at the foot ...
        By the way, the bust is good and the inscription "GLORY FOR CENTURIES TO CITIZENS, GLORIFIED RUSSIA" in my opinion is worthy !!! hi

          I also have to agree with you. Monuments to Yeltsin - confirmation of your words. But still ... it’s a shame that someone who played the role of a wrecker rather than a savior erected large monuments, but only a bust to someone. Logically, it should be the other way around

      Drappier,

      And what is more beautiful? It’s a joke full of sarcasm from hard humor. The participants of the war of 12 years didn’t wait for apartments about the Great Patriotic War veterans, it’s also not clear what about the heroes of the last wars, and you don’t even have to talk ?! This is not beautiful, it's terrible!

        I understand this perfectly well, but this discovery is symbolic, but as for the veterans, I am sure that money and apartments are allocated, just because of the size of the country and the cowardice of officials, this is all "lost" somewhere, and there is no way to control where.

    In 1976 he was on a business trip to Poland (military service). Due to the technical malfunction of our side. We were given a tour. In the city of Borislavice, they were at the Kutuzov Museum. He died in this building when he was chasing retreating Frenchmen. Before his death, he said: - My soul belongs to the Motherland, bury me in the Homeland. With my heart I have always been next to the Russian soldier, bury my heart here. There was a monument at this place. Interestingly preserved?

    I was in Poland in 1976 and was surprised to learn that his heart was buried here. "On April 17, 1813, the field marshal left Gainau for the city of Saxony - Dresden. On the way he caught a cold. I had to make a stop in Bunzlau. Kutuzov and his headquarters stayed in a two-story house. Being seriously ill, he continued to lead the troops. But the illness quickly
    progressed and on April 28 evening, Field Marshal Mikhail Illarionovich Kutuzov died. The body of the deceased was embalmed and laid in a zinc coffin. A small silver vessel with an embalmed heart was placed there at the head of the bed. The remaining remains were put in a small lead coffin and buried on May 8 on a hill near the Polish village of Boleslawiec, two kilometers west of Bunzlau. The coffin with the body of Kutuzov on May 9 was sent to St. Petersburg. On June 25, 1813, M.I. Kutuzov was buried with great honors in the Kazan Cathedral in St. Petersburg. Later, a monument was erected in front of the cathedral, which stands to this day.
