This is the House of the Soviets, the ugliest building on Russian soil.

It's right in the centre of Kaliningrad, so that you'll always remember architecture Soviet-style

This summer I spent some time in Kaliningrad with three friends of mine.

Hier kun je lezen over de vreemde dingen die je op Russische bodem mee maakt. Deze pagina is ook in het Nederlands beschikbaar.

If you want to look at some pictures of Kaliningrad, click hier for Koen's homepage. He was in Kaliningrad with me this summer.

Here's some links for Kaliningrad-fanatics:

• The Ostpreussenblatt, a newspaper published by some crazy Germans claiming Königsberg is an inalienable part of Germany (jawohl)
• Kaliningrad State University,look out, this page is slow to load.
• Kaliningrad in your pocket, a travel guide with everything you always wanted to know about Kaliningrad
• Kaliningrad Information Server, with lots of information for Russian-speakers
• A page about the Special Economic Zone: Kaliningrad: your gateway to Russia
• A site about the Via Baltica, a highway project to connect Kaliningrad with the rest of the world
• Just new: a page with lots of information about Kaliningrad: http://www.kaliningrad.com

And finally, two personal homepages about Kaliningrad: by Oleg Duletsky and by Roman Rodichev. Both quite interesting!
