Photos and videos from the cleanup of Kharkiv’s Catacombs

As part of the traditional volunteer project “Give Your Beloved City a Couple of Meters,” the “Children of the Underground” Foundation, the “Alluring Kharkiv” Foundation, and concerned residents of Kharkiv carried out multiple cleanups of the Kharkiv Catacombs at the Gostiny Dvor complex beneath Kvitky-Osnov’yanenka Street.

Each of these outings brings us a few steps closer to realizing our project to create the Kharkiv Underground Museum!
