Katyusha monument, War memorial in Romanovka, Russia.
Five steel beams rise 14 meters high at an angle from a concrete foundation, representing the military rocket launcher that defended Leningrad during World War II.
From 1941 to 1943, anti-aircraft units were stationed at this elevation near Kornevo village to protect the vital Road of Life supply route.
The granite wall bears inscriptions commemorating the defense of Leningrad and honors the soldiers who protected the supply route during the siege.
The monument sits along the route of the annual international winter Road of Life Marathon, which attracts participants from numerous countries.
The monument received the Komsomol Prize in 1967 for its architectural design combining industrial materials with symbolic representation of military equipment.
