Kerch is a unique city. Its history goes back to the 6-th
century BC. The city faced lots of historical events: invasions and wars,
revolutions and uprisings.
During the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945) old Kerch became a
forefront city several times. It was twice occupied by the Nazis and twice
liberated from them. After the first liberation in 1941 people all over the
world learned about Bagerovo moat filled with the bodies of residents of the
city and surrounding villages killed by the invaders. When Kerch was
liberated for the second time in 1943 everybody learned a new word
“Adzhimushkay”. The Adzhimushkay stone quarries became an underground
fortress. There were about 15000 fighting men and women, old people and
children there. They lived and fought in difficult conditions without any
water, food and light. Underground garrison fought courageously against the
enemy. Not everyone survived the gas attack in 1942, but those who did
continued to fight for 170 days and nights.
