First pic is past the tanks looking across the bridge towards the main monument. The second pic is the sculpture titled "Voda" which means water. It is next to the river at the place where Russian soldiers went to get water which was under German observation. 3rd pic is the monument from across the bridge. It is a very big monument. Look closely at the 4th pic, there is a bride and groom on the other side of the soldiers. It is customary for newly weddinged couples to make a pilgrimage to this place. Notice that 2 of the guards are women.
