Heavy bomb damage can be seen in this aerial photo above the city. The city in the pic is Viipuri/Viborg and I think the photo is taken from the castle tower to the east. - Esa K. (Thank you Esa!)	More info about the picture of Viipuri on the left from Jarkko Vihavainen - Jaeger Platoon Viipuri / Wiborg got bombed both during Winter War and Continuation War. During late Winter War it was also bombarded by "aavetykki" ("ghost gun" as the Finns called it), which was Soviet railway gun firing tens of kilometres away.
