<p>Well, well, well, so Konigsberg of East Prussia became Kalinigrad of the USSR after World War II. Konigsberg was famous for the 7 bridges problem often assoicated with Euler, of course.</p>
<p>According to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Prussia">Wikipedia</a>,</p>
<blockquote><p>In the Soviet part of the region (note: i.e. former East Prussia) a policy of eliminating all remnants of German history was pursued. In 1967 this resulted in the demolition of the remains of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B6nigsberg_Castle">Königsberg Castle</a> by order of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonid_Brezhnev">Leonid Brezhnev</a> to make way on the site for the new &#8220;House of Soviets&#8221;.</p></blockquote>
<p>In other words, Brezhnev dynamited this</p>
<p><strong>Konigsberg Castle</strong></p>
<p><img src="wp-content/uploads/images/440px-Konigsberg_Castle.jpg" alt="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/ba/K%C3%B6nigsberg_Castle.jpg/440px-K%C3%B6nigsberg_Castle.jpg" height="384" width="282" /></p>
<p>To make room for this</p>
<p><strong>House of Soviets (Dom Sovetov)</strong></p>
<p><img height="384" src="wp-content/uploads/images/436px-Dom_sovetov.jpg" alt="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Dom_sovetov.jpg/436px-Dom_sovetov.jpg" width="280" /></p>
<p>Was the architect of the House of Soviets a robot, who modeled the building after its own face? Dom sovetov indeed. Har har.</p>
