Monument to the Warrior Liberator, War memorial in Kemerovo, Russia.
The Monument to the Warrior Liberator displays a tall bronze figure of a soldier standing on a stone pedestal in the heart of Kemerovo. In front of it lies an open area that provides space for gatherings and wreaths.
The memorial was built after World War II to honor fallen soldiers. Between 2009 and 2012 it underwent major restoration to secure the condition of the bronze and pedestal.
The name recalls the liberation campaigns of World War II, and the soldier figure wears military details from that era. Locals often bring carnations on memorial days, laying them at the base.
The site sits centrally and is easy to reach by public transport. The area remains open year-round, so visitors can stop by at any time.
Architects Y. I. Ryk and I. P. Yastryebov shaped the design with clean lines typical of postwar memorials. Their plan combined simple forms with emotional impact.
