On June 22nd, 1941, the same day that the German army attacked the Soviet Union, the defenders of the Brest Fortress were among the first to face the invaders in battle.
The artillery barrage and the following swift advance of the Germans caught the fortress's large garrison by surprise. Those who failed to break out had to fight an uneven battle within its walls. Despite having the advantage of surprise, only after a week of fighting, with the support of tanks, aircraft, and artillery, were the German forces able to crush the main pockets of resistance and capture the fortress by June 30th. But even after that, a few surviving soldiers, hiding in the catacombs, continued to fight against the German army until July 23th.
