Museum of Partisan Glory


Saturday when we got back into Odessa there was a branch activity going on in the afternoon at this place called the Catacombs Museum of Partisan Glory. It is a place that soldiers hid during WWII. The tour was alright, I didn’t really understand a lot of it since the tour was in Russian, but I got some cool pictures!
