Козацький хрест «Убієнним синам України»

The granite cross stands three meters tall and weighs eight tons, featuring a sunburst relief with faces of prominent Ukrainian figures on its front surface.

The monument marks the location where over thousand prisoners from Solovki, including Ukrainian intellectuals, were executed during the 1937 mass killings.

The cross surfaces display uneven textures representing rope marks of bound prisoners, serving as a memorial to victims of political repression.

The monument stands on an earthen mound within the Sandarmokh memorial complex, accessible for commemorative ceremonies throughout the year.

The memorial stone weighs approximately eight tons and incorporates stylized facial features of the Ukrainian Renaissance figures who perished at this location.
