It is the biggest necropolis of Russian soldiers - participants

of the Crimean war. Upon it are based about 50 thousand defenders of Sevastopol. It is organised in the end of September, 1854 under instructions of vice-admiral V.A.Kornilova. In the beginning was called as Peter and Paul, then began to be called Brotherly .
In 1870 St. Nikolay's temple-pyramid - the general monument to the lost defenders of Sevastopol (was under construction with 1857 for 1870) has been built. For the project of this temple architect A.A.Avdeev has been awarded ranks of the academician of architecture.
On a cemetery was available more than 500 communal graves and about 200 individual gravestones. Only 472 communal graves and about 120 individual gravestones now have remained.

One of the few castle constructions of the middle of

XIX century, remained in a city up to now. It is constructed by summer of 1854 on means of inhabitants of Sevastopol, under the project of military engineer F.A.Starchenko.
Last day sieges and city defences, on August, 27th, 1855, in a tower have taken cover and within several hours battled to superior forces of Frenchmen about forty soldiers of the Modlinsky regiment and a handful of sailors. In the beginning frenchmentried to take it by storm, but have met fierce resistance. Then the general the Poppy-magon has ordered to impose a tower brushwood and to set fire, but, being afraid of explosion of a powder cellar, has cancelled the order. Frenchmen have hastily extinguished fire. Only bombardment by pomegranates from guns has stopped unequal struggle. This episode has entered into the first Russian art feature film "Defense of Sevastopol", removed in 1911 directors A.A.Hanzhonkovym and V.M.Goncharovym .
In 1956 the defensive tower became branch of the Museum of the Black Sea fleet, since 1963 in it there is an exposition of the Museum of Heroic defence and clearing of Sevastopol, telling about the events occurring on Malahov a barrow in days of Crimean and great domestic wars.
