Monument of the Ingush Cavalry Regiment of the «Savage Division»

The Monument of the Ingush Cavalry Regiment is a bronze memorial standing 4.5 meters tall in Nazran that depicts mounted soldiers from the early 20th century. It shows men who served in a cavalry unit composed of riders from the local region.

The regiment was formed in 1914 from volunteers in the Caucasus region who fought during World War I. This unit took part in major military operations and played a significant role in the conflict.

The monument reflects how local soldiers kept their own traditions while fighting alongside troops from many different backgrounds. Their service shows a blend of local identity and participation in a larger military force.

The site is easily accessible on foot and open to visitors most days of the week. It is worth checking locally to see if any commemorative events or gatherings are planned, as these may be the best time to visit.

The mounted soldiers brought their own horses and weapons to war, which set them apart from regular infantry troops. The relationship between these riders and their commanders was also notably informal and relaxed.
