Which Banknote, Meant To Display The Solovetsky Monastery, Instead
Displays The Solovetsky Death Camp?

"We feel pain for veterans and
for the people who died in these damned death camps," said
a 72-year-old north Russian resident, when speaking of the new 500
ruble Russian note.

The crosses, which were atop the
Solovetsky monastery, were removed when the monastery
was turned
into a death camp in 1926. The banknote picture shows the building
without the crosses.
"Our banknote is the
only note in the world with a picture of a World War II
concentration camp!"
