Voronezh, Russia
I'm afraid I can't decipher the postmark, dated 5 December 2008.
Voronezh was founded officially over 400 years ago but was in existence at least 300 years before that. Peter the Great built a fleet there, probably the first in Russia. The card shows the Assumption Admiralty Church, built 1698-1701.
