Obelisk of Victory, Tver, War memorial obelisk in Tver, Russia.

The Obelisk of Victory reaches 45.5 meters into the sky, featuring eight copper plates with bas-reliefs depicting military achievements and inscriptions.

The memorial structure opened on December 16, 1970, marking 29 years since Tver, then known as Kalinin, was freed from German occupation.

The monument serves as a central gathering point for commemorative events, where residents honor the memory of those who served in World War II.

The memorial site remains open throughout the day without entrance fees, with nearby parking spaces and public transportation stops for convenient access.

A gas torch at the top of the obelisk lights up during specific dates throughout the year, creating a visible symbol across the city landscape.
