Vladimir - the city of labor valor.

The contribution of the Vladimirites to the victory over Nazi Germany is invaluable.

280 thousand residents of Vladimir fought on the fronts of the Great Patriotic War, 50 thousand were awarded orders and medals for military exploits, 176 were awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union, 19 were awarded the Order of Glory of three degrees.

During the days of the battle of Moscow, the territory of the future Vladimir Region became frontline, so it both evacuated and accepted enterprises from the occupied areas.

The factories of the Vladimir region worked for the needs of the Front.

The people of Vladimir carried the burden of the war on their shoulders along with the whole country, sending their sons and fathers to war, giving all their strength, working in the rear.
