Lasting from July 1942 - February 1943, the Battle of Stalingrad was of course one of the bloodiest battles in human history. The intense urban combat often led to a single building being occupied by both forces, and seeing fighting over mere single rooms. This battle is the turning point for the Eastern Front, as after this battle, Soviet Forces would continue advancing West towards Berlin for nearly the entire war.

The Motherland Calls Stalingrad Monument under construction, April 1963 -- Daily LIFT #1212
From the Soviet Press, April 1963:
Overgrown with wormwood, torn by shrapnel, furrowed by grenades and soaked with blood, Mamayev Hill, where the heroes of the Battle of Stalingrad in 1943 stood their ground to last. Now the ring of the stonecutters' chisels fills the air, and the jibs of tower cranes float slowly in the sky: a monument to the men who fell in that battle is nearing completion.
The photo shows a section of the monument: a soldier with a submachine gun in one hand and a grenade in the other rises from a huge boulder. Engraved on the rock are the words, "Stand to the last, not a single step backward." Although the monument is not yet finished, visitors have been coming to Mamayev Hill to pay tribute to the heroes.
