The events of the Second World War have long been in the past, but interest to them remains so far. One of the reasons that warms him up is the fact that, unlike earlier wars, this left behind a lot of photo documents that allow one to see the events of that terrible time with their own eyes. Especially realistic, they can convey the viewer is color photographs, and therefore they are of particular value.

We present to your attention a collection of photographs made primarily in 1942 in the occupied by German soldiers Kharkov. On the shots you can see several buildings destroyed in the course of shelling and air strikes, but a year later, when in 1943 a series of fierce battles will again take place here, the damaged structures on the Kharkov streets will significantly increase. It is noteworthy that, despite the presence of enemy invaders, the life of local residents continues. They also conduct trade and drive public transport, but you can not help but pay attention to the colorful signs hanging everywhere German propaganda in German and Ukrainian languages.
