associated with the divisive soviet dictator joseph stalin. hello and welcome to the pride on this week's moscow out so we'll be taking a look at one of the most famous figures in russian history joseph stalin and we started here at the museum at sculpture park next to the famous knights and thirty eight granite sculpture of the soviet leader there were many interesting locations and places connected with the soviet leaders life and death. this sinister monument represents the victims of stalin's purges in the one nine hundred thirty seven million people were held in prison camps by the time his rule was over and the

hundreds of thousands still alive if you take a closer look you can see that the nose on the statues face is broken one reason the majority of the controversial leaders step cheese were removed gradually from the towns and cities across the u.s.s.r. . as one of history's most notorious dictators he was for some a war hero who modernized the country to others he was a mass murderer it was a reign of terror to his people. to save a bad man i think it was very dangerous and stalin. believe nice yeah a leader that led the country after lenin. he was a murdered a lot of people but three million people. maybe not the best guy. he always destroyed your in your military before. you were after the nazis so. he

was a good. view was he was a good person. but was he able to destroy the nazi regime yes because of his leadership in the world. and was. a great warrior who brought you through. some really really tough time in the war. in leaving you did what he had to do to you were busy twice time magazine's person of the year to this day stalin still evokes mixed emotions. most modern day russians will continue to respect those who fought the nazis but they couldn't separate this from respect for a vicious ruthless tyrant. and if we did not believe in his time many people say he's a terrible tyrant who how can we know who he was or how he rules. the soviet art here the nature of gallery is well worth seeing it offers

a real insight into the creativity of the time this grand pieces called stallin of a shelf in kremlin painted by alexander in life in thirty eight he was one of the few mostest courts to officially work on commission off each cell and i remember that all work had to celebrate the leader of the state to paste in the myth of a happy country a daunting task for any artist of the time and soviet pieces like these have been gaining much more popularity in the world school should houses. was now arrived at red square as burial sites by the kremlin moules many servia leaders military personnel and influential figures were laid to rest here when stalin died in one nine hundred fifty three many openly wept for the man they called father teacher or god he was old enough still generally loved by the masses although lenin has a grandiose lame on red square not many people know that stalin is in fact here ok

so right behind it next to the kremlin walls or is the embalmed in later arrest next to lenin fête years. after his death it was decided in the late one nine hundred fifty s. due to his controversial reign his body should be removed from public hearings. and pave the way for a wave of liberalization in the arts although no official change in policy took place began to feel free to experiment in the work the next location is to go he house museum it was built in one thousand nine hundred for. a textile aaron head of the russian stock exchange featuring a mix of hallways in a spectacular gallery style design this building was one of the main locations associated with serbia literature. well as a file of literature around several meetings here with various writers in this building even later went on to give the house to the writer in nineteen thirty one and as the author was famously known for his love and passion of play in interior

design i really wonder what he would have thought of this breathtaking elaborate marble staircase maybe stalin had a sense of humor after all but it still this room the dining room is a perfect example of the stalinist style it can be used as a period piece film set it's furniture including the cardboard table chairs and the grand piano come from the nine hundred thirty is the full right to mix in gorky moved into this house several soviet organizations were located here one of them was a kindergarten for top party members and stellan son vassily was one of the kids who spent time here during his childhood the navy was extremely meticulous over who he allowed to write or paint the whole creative world was under his thumb and any mistake could mean certain death that sent sal and suppression didn't stop other writers from producing famous works. for instance was forced to write his masterpiece the most remarkable in secret. so other venues are

located. in the capital connected with joseph stallin stallin had several residences outside moscow as the cool russia his favorite one was the residents known as bush night that's the house was built in the one nine hundred thirty s. but it had undergone reconstruction changes many times according to stella's taste he likes the place not a mostly lived there during the second world war period and beyond stalin famously died at the residence in march monte fifty three stands bunker in the small of a is a branch of the central museum of forces it's an exciting place to visit as it's an authentic military construction from the one nine hundred thirty s. used by stalin jor in world war two from nine hundred forty one to nine hundred forty five it was turned into a museum in one thousand nine hundred six after a major reconstruction origine the bunker was a top secret location and to hide it a large stadium and sports complex with thousands of businesses was built above it
