Памятник генералу Апанасенко

The General Apanasenko monument sits at Railway Station Square and features a bronze statue mounted on a dark marble base. A circular flowerbed surrounds the structure, creating a defined space around the sculpture.

The monument was erected in 1949 as the city's first military sculpture, honoring a Soviet general who died during World War II. It marks the transition from personal remembrance to public tribute shortly after the war ended.

The monument, created by sculptor Nikolai Tomsky in 1949, became the first military-themed sculpture installed in Belgorod and received the Stalin Prize in 1950.

The monument is easy to reach and sits on a public square next to the railway station. It is lit at night, making it visible after sunset.

The statue holds binoculars in its hand and gazes toward the railway station. These details hint at the general's military role during the war.
