Perché vale la deviazione

This open site once held the red-brick neo-Gothic cathedral nicknamed the “Vyborg Notre-Dame.” Bombing damaged it in 1939–1944, but its final disappearance was deliberate: the remaining walls were blown up and cleared in 1953 for a Soviet theater that was never built.

An open site marking the location of the former neo-Gothic Vyborg Cathedral, known as the 'Vyborg Notre-Dame,' which was destroyed during and after World War II.
