Germany, Berlin 31.01.2025. Soviet graffiti in the Reichstag. With burnt wood and colored chalk, Soviet troops of all military ranks immortalized themselves on the walls inside the Reichstag building. After reunification, the British architect Norman Foster was commissioned to renovate the building. In 1995, he removed the cladding and was surprised to discover the graffiti of the Soviet soldiers. Deeply impressed by his discovery, he decided to preserve the Cyrillic characters on the wall. [automated translation]
