After World War II, the land of Latvia was full of physical remnants of war. It was a large number of shells, unexploded mines and simply cartridges. Even now, especially in places where active war activity took place, unexploded mines are found, which is a great rarity, while in the post-war years these shells were a part of everyday life for residents in forests and even in yards, and even children's toys.
