Monument of Vasily I, Bronze prince monument at Sobornaya Gora, Plyos, Russia
The monument features a bronze bust of Prince Vasily I positioned on a black marble pedestal between the Assumption Church and the museum building.
The monument was erected in 1910 to commemorate the presumed 500th anniversary of Plyos, which Prince Vasily I established as a customs post on the Volga River.
The sculpture represents Prince Vasily I, son of Dmitry Donskoy, wearing traditional medieval Russian attire with a beard, hat, and an open fur coat.
Visitors can find the monument at 1 Sobornaya Gora Street, where it stands within a decorative cast-iron fence on an elevated position overlooking the Volga.
The inscription on the pedestal uses pre-revolutionary Russian orthography, recording the monument's construction during the reign of Emperor Nicholas II.
