Those interested can see a piece of this masterpiece in Armyansky Lane.

One of the most tragic moments of Veronika and Boris's failed farewell was filmed in the courtyard of school No. 644. According to Tatyana Samoilova (Veronika), this courtyard with a cast-iron grate was accidentally discovered by Lidia Naumova, the artist of the painting.

The director liked the entourage so much that he decided to shoot the scene of Boris's seeing off here. Veronica ran here through the crowd, wiping away her tears.

By the way, in 1941, a fighter battalion was indeed formed at the gates of this building, which from there went to the front, as evidenced by the memorial plaque.
