Памятник Александру Невскому, Bronze monument in Kursk, Russia.
The Alexander Nevsky Monument is a bronze figure of a prince standing upright on a granite base in the center of Kursk. Information plaques surround the pedestal, providing visitors with details about the historical ruler and his accomplishments.
The monument honors Prince Alexander Nevsky, who defended Russian territories from foreign invaders during the 13th century through military victories. His protective role against external threats established him as a key figure in the nation's past.
The monument serves as a gathering place for local residents during national holidays and Orthodox ceremonies honoring the prince. It becomes a focal point for remembrance, especially during celebrations tied to Russian heritage and faith.
The monument is located in a public area that is easily accessible and open from all sides. Visiting during daylight hours allows you to see the bronze details and surroundings clearly.
After a comprehensive restoration in 2020, the monument received upgraded lighting systems that illuminate it differently in the evening. The enhanced lighting and renewed landscaping around the pedestal give the site a fresh appearance compared to its previous condition.
