Small mass grave of the defenders of Stalingrad on the Mamayev Hill, where 1,500 soldiers killed in battles for Mamayev Kurgan in January-February 1943 were buried. After 1943 the defenders of Stalingrad from all over the city were buried in the Great Mass Grave. The monument on the Small Common Grave is a figure of a female soldier in a raincoat, with a memorial wreath in his hands, on a pedestal. This gypsum sculpture was installed on the Mamayev Kurgan during the Great Patriotic War, at the same time the monument was given a popular name - "Margarita". Among the defenders of Stalingrad was a nurse Margarita Sergeeva, according to eyewitnesses, which became the prototype for an unknown sculptor. In 1988 gypsum sculpture was replaced with bronze sculpture. In May 2005, at the "height of 102" near the Minor mass grave was built an Orthodox church of All Saints. At present, the small mass grave and the temple are part of the "Monument-Ensemble to the Heroes of the Battle of Stalingrad on the Mamayev Hill" . I. Presidential Library (St. Petersburg) .1.
