This tour includes a visit to the Blockade Museum and the Piskarevskoe memorial cemetery. The Blockade Museum focuses on the defence of Leningrad (1941-44), life in the city as well as the history of the 900-day siege. There are more than 35,000 exhibits, including the personal belongings of residents, army newspapers, diaries, soldiers' letters from the front, photographs and weapons. Also on display is a typical Leningrad flat of the blockade era. The Piskarevskoe Cemetery is the main site of mass burials of Leningrad residents who starved to death or were killed during the siege, and soldiers of the Leningrad front who fell during the Great Patriotic War of 1941-45. The cemetery is a reminder of the heroic Leningrad defence of 1941-44, and of the acts of courage that its citizens demonstrated in surviving the unprecedented 900-day siege. The cemetery is situated in the north-eastern part of St. Petersburg, in the district of Piskarevka. Over 470,000 civilians and 50,000 soldiers lie in the mass graves of Piskarevskoe Cemetrey.
