В. П. Алексеев һәйкәле, Bronze bust monument in Kirovsky District, Saint Petersburg, Russia

The V. P. Alekseev memorial is a bronze bust standing about 0.8 meters tall, mounted on a two-meter pedestal of polished gray granite. The original is now held in the State Museum of Urban Sculpture, while a plaster replica stands in the Garden of January 9th.

The memorial was established in 1928 to honor Vasily Alekseev, a Putilov factory worker and member of the Narva District Committee of the RSDLP. It originally stood near the building where the 6th Congress of the RSDLP took place in August 1917, an event Alekseev attended.

The inscription honors Vasily Alekseev as a key figure in founding the Komsomol youth movement, whose legacy shaped young people's engagement in the city for generations. The plaque reflects how this worker was remembered by those who came after him.

The original sculpture is housed in the State Museum of Urban Sculpture, where it is displayed with other city monuments. The plaster copy in the Garden of January 9th is accessible to the public and easy to locate.

The bust was originally positioned near the building where the 6th Congress of the RSDLP convened, creating a direct link to a pivotal historical moment. This proximity gave the memorial special meaning for those who attended or knew about that revolutionary gathering.
