Odesa is a city-hero. The defence of the city lasted 73 days in 1941. Military equipment, weapons, and soldiers were not enough for this city, but Odessa did not give up. This city managed to defeat the German-Romanian army! During this tour, we will walk along with the historical complex, which includes an exhibition in the open air, representing military equipment from the times of the Great Patriotic War. We will talk about weapons, military strategy and technique of that time, know about military legends, talk about history, see and much more. During this tour, we will do our best to show you historical and bold Odesa, the same Odesa, that fell into despair but could win.

Odesa is the city of variety. For this reason a few years ago a brilliant idea was born to make our city much more remarkable and picturesque by using a new art movement - street-art. Now you have a great opportunity to observe it with us and to listen to the stories about these splendid and inspiring drawings (as well as to find a deep philosophic spirit in them for you;)
