In memory of the battles of June 1944

'To the soldiers of the 946th Infantry Regiment of the Red Army and the 3rd Battalion of the 15th Infantry Regiment of the Finnish Army'.
There is a monument at the crossroads of forest roads east of the railway station '69 km'. On July 15-16, units of the 142nd Rifle Division of Soviet Army advanced in this area in the direction of Käkisalmi. VT-line already had been broken by that time, so the Finns began a systematic retreat north to Suvanto-Järvi, waging local battles, setting up ambushes, mining roads and destroying bridges.
