Die Rettungstat des Hauptmann Igor Belikow, Bronze sculpture at Ernst-Reuter-Allee, Magdeburg, Germany

The memorial features a 220-centimeter stone stele decorated with bronze relief plates and a life-sized figure of a girl holding tulips.

On March 13, 1969, Soviet Army officer Igor Belikow used his military coat to catch a four-year-old girl falling from the fifth floor.

The bronze plates display relief images depicting the rescue scene and include handwritten notes describing Belikow's heroic intervention.

The memorial stands on the south side of Ernst-Reuter-Allee, opposite house number 24, with wheelchair access for all visitors.

Heinrich Apel created this monument in 1984 to preserve the memory of a spontaneous act that united German and Soviet communities.
