Battle for the Reichstag There were many important events in the history of our country, but we think that the battle for the Reichstag is worth saying. by Mikhailov Alexander Skosurev Arthur

The Battle of Berlin, designated the Berlin Strategic Offensive Operation by the Soviet Union, was the final major offensive of the European theatre of World War II. Before the battle was over, German Führer Adolf Hitler and many other major officials of the Nazi regime committed suicide. The city’s garrison surrendered on the 2nd of May, but fighting continued to the north-west, west, and south-west of the city until the end of the war in the Soviet Union on the 9th of May as German units fought westward so that they could surrender to the Western Allies rather than to the Soviets.

The battle for the Reichstag was the key moment of Berlin’s capture.

This operation lasted from the 28th of April till the 2nd of May 1945 This operation lasted from the 28th of April till the 2nd of May 1945. It was done by the 150th and the 171st Rifle Division, the 8th Guard Army, the 79th Rifle Corps the 3rd Shock Army of the 1st Belorussian Front. The battle for the Reichstag was a military operation of the Red Army against the German troops on the mastery of the German parliament building.

The task of mastering the Reichstag was set on the 28th of April in combat disposal commander of the 79th Rifle Corps Major General S.N. Perevertkina: - the 150th Rifle Division was one rifle regiment. It had the defense on the river. Two infantry regiments go on the offensive with the task to master the western part of the Reichstag ... the 171st Rifles Division to continue the offensive in its borders with the task to master the eastern part of the Reichstag ... in the south-west the 8th Guards Army attack north across the Landwehr canal into the Tiergarten.

In the early hours of the 29th of April the Soviet 3rd Shock Army crossed the Moltke bridge and started to fan out into the surrounding streets and buildings.  The initial assaults on buildings, including the Ministry of the Interior, were hampered by the lack of supporting artillery. It was not until the damaged bridges were repaired that artillery could be moved up in support.

On the 29th of April, 1945 the next target on the way to the Reichstag building was the Ministry of Internal Affairs, nicknamed the Soviet soldiers’ House Himmler.

On the 30th of April, 1945 the part of the 150th Infantry Division under the command of Major-General V. M. Schatiloff and the 171st Infantry Division under the command of Colonel A.I. Nehoda captured the first floor of the Reichstag building. The way to the Reichstag was opened.

Early in the morning on the 1st of May A. P. Berest, M. A Early in the morning on the 1st of May A.P. Berest, M.A. Yegorov and M.V. Kantariya hoisted the flag of the 150th Infantry Division over the Reichstag. It was not a real flag but a large piece of red cloth. But later this flag became the Banner of Victory.

On the 2nd of May 1945 the Red Army controlled the building entirely On the 2nd of May 1945 the Red Army controlled the building entirely. The famous photo of the two soldiers planting the flag on the roof of the building is a re-enactment photo taken the day after the building was taken. To the Soviets the event as represented by the photo became symbolic of their victory demonstrating that the Battle of Berlin, as well as the Eastern Front hostilities as whole, ended with the total Soviet victory

After very bloody and fierce combat within its walls, the Soviets finally captured the Reichstag on the 2nd of May 1945, drawing closer to the end of a war that had cost the lives of many millions of Germans and Soviets.

The Medal “For the Capture of Berlin” was a World War II campaign medal of the Soviet Union established on the 9th June, 1945 by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR to satisfy the petition of the People’s Commissariat for Defense of the Soviet Union. The Medal “For the Capture of Berlin” was awarded to soldiers of the Red Army, Navy, and troops of the NKVD, direct participants of the heroic assault and capture of Berlin as well as to the organizers and leaders of combat operations in the capture of this city.

The act of unconditional surrender of Germany was signed on the night of the 9th of May. Berlin operation marked the end of the Great Patriotic War and the Second World War.
