Monument to Alexander Popov in Yekaterinburg, Historic monument in Kirovski district, Yekaterinburg, Russia.

The Monument to Alexander Popov is a welded cast-iron figure of the inventor seated on a bench, his head slightly bowed and hands folded, in Yekaterinburg's Kirovski district. It stands in Popov Square on Pushkina Street, near the Central Post Office, with a fountain in front of it.

The monument was unveiled in 1975 to mark Radio Day and honor Popov's role in developing wireless communication. It is one of several memorials built during the Soviet period to recognize contributions from Russian scientists.

Every 7 May, Radio Day, students and staff of the radio engineering faculty of Ural Federal University walk in procession to the monument, wash it, lay flowers and show their respect. In 2011 about 4,000 people took part, with fireworks, toasts and songs. The square, formerly Nurmov Square, is now unofficially called Popov Square.

The monument stands on a public square and is easy to reach on foot, as it is near the Central Post Office, a well-known city landmark. Visiting during the day is a good idea, since the square is active and the fountain may be running.

The monument was cast in cast-iron pieces welded together and polished, then painted under bronze in 2005 and consecrated by Archbishop Vikenty of Yekaterinburg and Verkhoturye. Its sculptor, Vladimir Yegorov, had planned a standing Popov with a lightning detector, but the Ural Compressor Plant could not cast it, so a seated version was made.
