Moscow Uprising - Damage to buildings
Between 5th and 7th December, there was a general strike by Russian workers. The government sent in troops on 7th December, and a bitter street-by-street fight began in Moscow. A week later the Semenovskii Regiment was deployed, using artillery to break-up demonstrations and to shell workers districts. On 18th December, with around a thousand people dead and parts of the city in ruins, the workers surrendered. After a final spasm in Moscow, the uprisings ended in December 1905. This postcard shows damage to the Presnia District during the uprising. Date: 1905
