Monumental complex in honor of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War in Ryazan
Monumental complex in honor of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War in Ryazan, War memorial complex in Ryazan, Russia
The memorial complex includes a 70-meter wall stele, an obelisk with the Order of Victory, and a sculptural group symbolizing the unity of front and rear forces.
The memorial was inaugurated on May 8, 1975, with the Eternal Flame brought from Moscow's Tomb of the Unknown Soldier by military vehicles.
The complex features memorial plaques displaying names of Ryazan citizens who received the title of Hero of the Soviet Union and full cavaliers of the Order of Glory.
The memorial serves as a central location for Victory Day celebrations on May 9, where residents gather to honor veterans and lay flowers at the Eternal Flame.
The ceremonial lighting of the Eternal Flame was performed by three distinguished military figures, including Hero of the Soviet Union B.I. Kovzan and retired Major General D.K. Shlepin.
