Malahov's barrow in Sevastopol

At the head of the chief path, on a small ground of a barrow, there is a coomon grave. There lie the bodies of Russian and French fighting men who had been killed in the last battle on Malakhov barrow in August 27, 1855, on the 349th day of defence.

On the grave the French placed a large white marble cross with the inscription: @September 3, 1855. They were inspirited by victory and united by death. Such is the glory of brave men. Such is soldiers' lot".

During passed war years the monument had been wrecked. It was restored in 1960 according to A.L.Sheffer's project.
