Statue of Dzerzhinsky in Saratov, Soviet regional heritage statue in Saratov, Russia.

The monument reaches 40 feet in height and depicts Felix Dzerzhinsky with an outstretched arm pointing toward downtown Saratov's center.

The statue commemorates Felix Dzerzhinsky, who established the Soviet secret police organization Cheka in 1917 and directed state security operations until 1926.

The monument stands among other Soviet-era structures, including a Lenin statue, reflecting the preservation of historical monuments in provincial Russian cities.

The statue serves as an orientation point near the central district, with regular public transportation stops facilitating access for visitors and residents.

The monument remains standing despite the removal of similar Dzerzhinsky statues in numerous Russian cities following the political changes of 1991.
