Памятник Аркадию Гайдару

The monument features three figures made of regule: Gaidar in military attire with a papakha hat, accompanied by a boy and girl on both sides.

The monument was erected in 1974 to honor Arkady Gaidar, a Soviet children's author who served in the Red Army and died in combat during World War II.

The sculpture represents Gaidar's connection with young readers, reflecting his influence on Soviet children's literature through works like Timur and His Squad.

The monument stands near the entrance of the Children and Youth Creative Center on Shkulev Street, accessible through public transportation in southeast Moscow.

The structure combines three materials: granite base, regule figures, and concrete elements, creating a gray composition that reaches several meters in height.
