  Moscow Metro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Moscow Metro, which spans almost the whole of the Russian capital, is one of the world's most heavily used metro systems.
During the Siege of Moscow, in the autumn and winter of 1941, metro stations were used as air-raid shelters and the Council of Ministers moved its offices to the platforms of Mayakovskaya, where Stalin made public speeches on several occasions.
In the further development of the Metro, the term "stages" was not used any more, although sometimes the stations opened in 1957-1959 are referred to as the "fifth stage".

 Litos - El "Moscow Metro's, "Stone Show"
The building of the first line of the Metro gave a positive boost to the Soviet stone quarrying and processing industries, which at that time were in a very neglected state.
Construction of the next phase of the Metro (parts of the Zamoskvorets and Arbat-Pokrovsk lines) in 1935-38 coincided with preparations for the building of the Palace of the Soviets, which to a considerable degree stimulated further development of sources of decorative stone in different parts of the Soviet Union.
The walls and columns of the Metro stations are not just a "silent school" of aesthetic education, but also a school which could provide the basics of mineralogy and petrography within a fascinating historical-architectural framework.
