‘It’s ugly, but it’s ours’. Königsberg is the name for a former German city that is now Kaliningrad 加里宁格勒, Russia。蘇維埃宮」（House of Soviets）

在俄羅斯最西端的城市 #加里寧格勒（Kaliningrad），有一棟離奇的「#蘇維埃宮」（House of Soviets）。它原應是二戰時 #蘇聯 成功佔據德國領土的象徵式建築物，然而最終象徵的，卻是蘇維埃系統的缺陷。其建築及結構差劣，長久以來無法使用，只得淪於荒廢。42 年後的今天，地方州長終宣佈預定今年春天將之拆除，然後重建一個「換湯不換藥」的新宮。

‘It’s ugly, but it’s ours’

Emile Ducke for The New York Times

The House of Soviets, an office building in Kaliningrad designed as a symbol of Soviet control over land captured during World War II, has instead become emblematic of the flaws of the Soviet system. Because of shoddy construction and structural defects, it has never been occupied.

But its ugliness made it strangely beloved by young people as an emblem of a Soviet Union they never knew. Now, 42 years later, as the regional government plans to demolish it, some want to keep it. “People like things with defects,” one resident said. “It’s ugly, but it’s ours.”

Notable people[edit]

Königsberg was the birthplace of the mathematician Christian Goldbach and the writer E.T.A. Hoffmann, as well as the home of the philosopher Immanuel Kant, who lived there virtually all his life and rarely travelled more than ten miles (16 km) away from the city.^[94] Kant entered the university of Königsberg at age 16 and was appointed to a chair in metaphysics there in 1770 at the age of 46. While working there he published his Critique of Pure Reason (arguing that knowledge arises from the application of innate concepts to sensory experience) and his Metaphysics of Morals which argues that virtue is acquired by the performance of duty for its own sake.^[95] In 1736, the mathematician Leonhard Euler used the arrangement of the city's bridges and islands as the basis for the Seven Bridges of Königsberg Problem, which led to the mathematical branches of topology and graph theory. In the 19th century Königsberg was the birthplace of the influential mathematician David Hilbert.

俄羅斯西部 Kaliningrad 正就機場改名諮詢居民意見，其中德國哲學家康德是熱門之一。這引來一些政客和軍官批評，說康德是恐俄份子，是個背叛祖國(俄羅斯)的叛徒，寫了一些沒有現代人會閱讀的古怪書籍。

在康德生活的18世紀，該處仍是屬於普魯士，名為Königsberg，到二戰後改由蘇聯統治，並易名 Kaliningrad ，大批德國人被趕走。根據已知歷史證據，康德對俄羅斯沒有很強烈的感受。
