Monument of Courage, Monument complex in Tashkent, Uzbekistan.

The Monument of Courage features a black granite cube with a clock face, split by a symbolic crack representing the 1966 earthquake impact.

The devastating earthquake of April 26, 1966 measured 8.0 on the Richter scale, destroying over 2 million square meters of housing in Tashkent.

The bronze sculptures within the monument depict a woman holding a child and a man, representing protection and family bonds during difficult times.

The monument stands near the epicenter of the 1966 earthquake, surrounded by landscaped gardens that provide space for contemplation and remembrance.

The clock face embedded in the granite cube permanently displays 5:24, marking the exact moment when the earthquake struck Tashkent.
