On July 1st, at 13:00 near Lower Pond ( Schloβteich) in Königsberg the P-Russian parade will be held. The route - along the Lower Pond. We are inviting everyone. Posters and slogans are not permitted. Flags of Russian and Prussian. Other flags are coordinated with the organizers. Strict dress code - white top, black bottom. Musicians will play the Russian and Prussian tunes. Symbol of parade - wild flower, cornflower.
The purpose of this event is to highlight the stages of a centuries-old history of the region. Prussian History is a Russian History too. Many common links through the centuries connecting Prussia and Russia. Here are some milestones:

3. The Battle of Eylau - Prussian and Russian troops fought together against the forces of Napoleon.

The "Preussische allgemeine zeitung" wrote about our parade, which took place in Königsberg on May 1st and announced the parade on 1st of July. It is funny to see once again, that about the activities and people in Königsberg writes the foreign press, but not local "journalists".
