Monument "Honor and Glory to Soviet army"

Monument "Honor and Glory to Soviet army", Soviet military monument in Litoměřice, Czech Republic.

The monument "Honor and Glory to Soviet army" was a sculptural work by Otakar Petroš, made between 1972 and 1975 with architect František Kameník and Antonín Žemlička. It stood at the corner of Osvobození and Žižkova streets in Jiráskovy sady, Litoměřice, and was dismantled on 14 June 2025, leaving only its plinth in the park.

Sculptor Otakar Petroš worked on the monument from 1972 to 1975 with architect František Kameník and Antonín Žemlička. It was unveiled on 3 May 1975 for the 30th anniversary of Czechoslovakia's liberation and stood at the corner of Osvobození and Žižkova streets in Jiráskovy sady. The Litoměřice council decided on 24 April 2025 to remove it, and on 14 June 2025 it was dismantled and taken to the technical services yard in Kamýcká street.

The monument was removed on 14 June 2025 and taken to the technical services yard in Kamýcká Street; only its plinth remains in Jiráskovy sady. In 2022 an unknown person painted a washing-machine door on the base, a reference to looting by Russian soldiers in Ukraine, and the photo appeared in world media. The city had earlier refused removal, citing a Czech-Russian treaty on war graves.

The monument was dismantled on 14 June 2025 and taken to the technical services yard in Kamýcká Street. Only the plinth remains at the corner of Osvobození and Žižkova streets in Jiráskovy sady, so visitors can no longer see the sculpture itself.

In October 2022 an unknown person painted a washing-machine door on the pedestal, a reference to looting by Russian soldiers in Ukraine; the photo appeared in world media and the police investigated without finding the culprit. The city then announced a camera and an explanatory plaque.
