Millennium of Yaroslavl Monument, Bronze and granite monument at Strelka Park, Yaroslavl, Russia.
The monument features a granite column exceeding 20 meters in height, crowned with a gilded double-headed eagle and surrounded by bronze sculptures.
Unveiled in September 2010, this monument marks 1000 years since Prince Yaroslav the Wise established the city of Yaroslavl on the Volga River.
Five bronze figures represent key roles in Russian society: Prince Yaroslav, a woman with child, a warrior, an Orthodox priest, and a citizen.
The monument stands at the intersection of the Volga and Kotorosl rivers, accessible through walkways in the lower tier of Strelka Park.
Ten multi-figure reliefs encircle the base, depicting historical events including Valentina Tereshkova's space flight and post-Soviet life in Yaroslavl.
