Both Moscow and St. Petersburg have memorials to the victims of the Gulag made of boulders from the [[Solovki camp]] — the first prison camp in the Gulag system. Moscow's memorial is on [[Lubyanka Square]], the site of the headquarters of the NKVD. People gather at these memorials every year on the [[Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Political Repressions|Day of Victims of the Repression (October 30)]].
