Once again, an unusual set of cities and towns in the Kaliningrad region. For experts! Pravdinsk (Friedland) is famous for the fact that in the summer of 1807, a battle between the Russian and French armies took place here. Russia tried to protect its ally Prussia, but was forced to retreat near Friedland, having lost 5 cannons and 12 thousand people killed and wounded. The result of the Battle of Friedland was the conclusion of the Tilsit Peace. The settlement of Zheleznodorozhny is a completely different story. The Germans restored the town of Gerdauen as a medieval toy more than a century ago. Then it became a junction point for railway communication from Europe to the Kaliningrad region. And then it fell into disrepair again. And it is very interesting to watch how it is being restored today. And the settlement of Druzhba (Allenburg) is interesting for the remains of the Masurian Canal and an unusual lock.
