This complex includes the Hall of Military Glory, a circular building housing an eternal flame and bearing plaques with the names of the fallen heroes of the Battle of Stalingrad. This memorial features an hourly changing of the guard that draws many tourists during the warmer months. Across from this Hall, there is a statue called Mother's Sorrow, which depicts a grieving woman holding a fallen soldier in her arms. During the summer months, this statue is surrounded by a small water feature, called the Lake of Tears. Further down the hill of this complex, there is a Plaza of Heroes (also known as Heroes' Square), featuring multiple allegorical sculptures of heroic deeds. This plaza is sometimes referred to by the title of the most famous of these sculptures, called "Having withstood, we conquered death".<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

Commissioned in 1858, it was first christened the Kriushi, then the Pirate, until it was purchased by the <a href="/wiki/Diocese_of_Astrakhan" title="Diocese of Astrakhan">Diocese of Astrakhan</a> in 1910 and converted into a church. It served for 8 years, traveling up and down the Volga River, sometimes clocking 4,000 miles a year. Much like every other church in Russia, it was decommissioned in 1918 by the Soviets. It made such an impact on the local population however, that almost 80 years later, it was the inspiration for a new "flotilla of God".<sup id="cite_ref-BarbaLata_51-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-BarbaLata-51"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Volgograd_Synagogue">Volgograd Synagogue</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Volgograd&action=edit&section=22" title="Edit section: Volgograd Synagogue"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B2%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%A6%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%86%D1%8B%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%B0._%D1%83%D0%BB._%D0%91%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%85%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B4.6.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1e/%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B2%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%A6%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%86%D1%8B%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%B0._%D1%83%D0%BB._%D0%91%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%85%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B4.6.jpg/220px-%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B2%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%A6%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%86%D1%8B%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%B0._%D1%83%D0%BB._%D0%91%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%85%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B4.6.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1e/%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B2%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%A6%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%86%D1%8B%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%B0._%D1%83%D0%BB._%D0%91%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%85%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B4.6.jpg/330px-%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B2%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%A6%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%86%D1%8B%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%B0._%D1%83%D0%BB._%D0%91%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%85%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B4.6.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1e/%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B2%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%A6%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%86%D1%8B%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%B0._%D1%83%D0%BB._%D0%91%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%85%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B4.6.jpg/440px-%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B2%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%A6%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%86%D1%8B%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%B0._%D1%83%D0%BB._%D0%91%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%85%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B4.6.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1000" data-file-height="667" /></a><figcaption>First Volgograd Synagogue</figcaption></figure> <p>Also known as Beit David Synagogue, it was named after David Kolotilin, a Jewish leader during the Soviet period. Although some sources claim that this was the first synagogue to serve the Jews of Volgograd, was constructed in 1888, and its original purpose was exclusively that of a synagogue, there is little evidence to support this. What little documentation exists suggests that it was indeed built at the turn of the century, but its original purpose is unknown.<sup id="cite_ref-CJA_52-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CJA-52"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In fact, a 1903 tourist guide to Tsaritsyn warns that almost all of the buildings in the town are wooden and makes no mention of this structure, so an 1888 construction date is highly unlikely.<sup id="cite_ref-Dixon_22-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Dixon-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It is a two-story, rectangular building, made of brick and richly decorated.

With the help of multiple fundraising campaigns and generous donors, including Edward Shifrin and Alex Schneider, the synagogue was restored. An annex was constructed in 2005 to mimic the original style and the building was rededicated in 2007.<sup id="cite_ref-54" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-54"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>50<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The prayer hall can be found on the first floor, with communal offices on the second.<sup id="cite_ref-CJA_52-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CJA-52"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Located at 2 Balachninskaya Street in the center of Volgograd.
