This place is a must-visit! It's breathtaking and creepy to realize what was going on here.... brown plague, many thanks to the museum staff for a good tour, for a visual aid and reports to the present of the terrible that once was. Low bow, thank you.

January 18
In December 1942, Oleg Koshevoy, commissar of the Young Guard, was arrested forty km from Krasnodon and brought to the gendarmerie of Rovenka (Luhansk region). There he was held in Gestapo dungeons, tortured, and, having achieved nothing, on January 9, 1943, he was shot in the Rattlesnake Forest (on the outskirts of the city of Rovenka). Young guardsmen Vitya Subbotin, Semyon Ostapenko, Dima Ogurtsov and Lyubochka Shevtsova were also shot there (she was a radio operator and her tormentors never learned the code).... I have been many times to the museum of the city of Rovenka and what I saw there is impossible to forget... Creepy cells, walls covered with chalk and blood, an interrogation room (all the furniture from those times), a cast-iron round furnace, many metal instruments of torture that were heated in this furnace, hooks, chains... It is impossible to imagine what these young people, teenagers, had to endure and not break down, not betray their country, their ideals. I lived in the early seventies of the last century in the city of Krasny Luch (75 km to Krasnodon, 50 km to Rovenki) and our schoolchildren were taken to the museums of these cities, and in Rovenki in the park on the alley of Glory they were accepted as pioneers (specially students were taken by bus). And the feat of the Young Guards was in everyone's hearts and on their lips, they were and are heroes of their country and their time. Real young citizens of the Soviet Country!!! Memory, honor and immense respect to all the heroes of the Young Guard!!!

An amazing museum, for all adults and children. It is located in the courtyard of the hospital, especially now when you see guys from the front being treated and the last war is here.... To tears
