Brest Fortress, located in Brest, Belarus, is a historic site renowned for its staunch defense during the early days of Operation Barbarossa in World War II. Built in the 19th century by the Russian Empire, the fortress became a symbol of Soviet resistance after withstanding a prolonged siege by the German Wehrmacht in June 1941. Today, it stands as a memorial complex, featuring monuments, museums, and preserved fortifications that honor the bravery and sacrifice of its defenders.
