Lenin Statue, Soviet monument at Karla Marksa intersection, Irkutsk, Russia.
The bronze Lenin statue stands on a granite pedestal at the junction of Lenin Street and Karl Marx Street in central Irkutsk.
The monument, designed by sculptor Nikolai Tomsky and unveiled in 1952, replicates an earlier version installed in the city of Voronezh.
This cultural heritage site represents a period when Soviet monuments marked the urban landscape of Russian cities during the communist era.
The monument remains accessible throughout the year and serves as a central meeting point for guided tours exploring Soviet-era landmarks.
The statue maintains its original position and condition while many similar Lenin monuments across Eastern Europe were removed after 1991.
