Probably Kursk, in the summer of 1943. The Soviets had complete intelligence of German attack plans, and prepared defenses in depth, up to fifty miles in depth actually.

The Germans never again had the strength to mount another massive offensive, or regain the initiative. But your question would also describe Moscow, in December, 1941. The Germans had reached the outskirts of Moscow, could hear the clock bells downtown. After learning from spies that the Japanese had no plans to attack in the east while the Germans savaged them in the west, the Soviets moved hundreds of thousands of troops from the east and counterattacked, and the Germans were never again anywhere near Moscow. Losing Moscow might have been the end for the Russians.
