Saint Vladimir Monument, Bronze memorial statue near Kremlin, Moscow, Russia.
The 17.5-meter-tall bronze statue depicts Prince Vladimir holding a large cross at Borovitskaya Square in central Moscow.
The monument commemorates Vladimir the Great, who introduced Orthodox Christianity to Kievan Rus in 988 and transformed the medieval Slavic state.
The statue represents Prince Vladimir's influence on Russian religious identity through his decision to embrace Orthodox Christianity as the state religion.
The monument stands within walking distance from Borovitskaya metro station, making it accessible for visitors exploring the Kremlin area.
The statue's construction required 25 tons of bronze and arrived in multiple sections before welders assembled it at its current location.
