Assuming you mean WW2, the battle of Stalingrad. This was a huge battle in the city of Stalingrad (what else) today known as Volgograd as it lies on the river Volga. This battle took place between August 1942 and February 1943. It involved many hundreds of thousands of troops, both Russian and German. In the end, the Soviets (USSR) was able to encircle the German invaders and have them surrender. This battle effectively halted the German advance allowing the Russians to take a large offensive, eventually leaving to another massive Russian victory near Kursk.
