Leningraders

Leningraders are individuals who lived in or are associated with the city of Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg) during the Soviet era. The term often refers to residents who endured the Siege of Leningrad (1941-1944), a prolonged military blockade by Nazi forces during World War II. Despite extreme hardship, many Leningraders showed remarkable resilience and endurance. Today, the term can also symbolize the city's history, cultural identity, and the spirit of its people who faced adversity during that period.
