Qabrsiz bedarak yo‘qolgan askarlar uchun yodgorlik, Military memorial monument in Victory Park, Moscow, Russia
Description
This memorial features a bronze sculpture of a wounded soldier with a covered face mounted on a granite base in the Tank Alley section. The work combines smooth bronze forms with rough granite surfaces to create a striking visual contrast.
History
This memorial was built in 1995 to mark the 50th anniversary of victory in World War II and was gifted by Ukraine to Russia. The donation reflected shared historical experiences between the two nations during wartime.
Culture
Visitors regularly place fresh flowers at the base to honor those lost in conflicts without graves. The monument serves as a quiet place where people come to remember and pay their respects.
Practical
The site is easily reached via Park Pobedy metro station, which connects directly to Victory Park. Walking through the park itself is straightforward, and the monument is positioned in a less crowded section.
Did you know?
The sculpture deliberately combines granite and bronze materials to symbolize hundreds of thousands of soldiers whose bodies were never recovered. This material choice makes the absence and loss tangible to visitors.
