Pomník překročení Odry československými tankisty při osvobozování Ostravy, War memorial along Oder River in Ostrava, Czech Republic
The memorial features a preserved T-34/85 tank positioned near the strategic crossing point where Czechoslovak forces advanced during the liberation operation.
On April 30, 1945, the 1st Czechoslovak Independent Brigade crossed the Oder River at this location, marking a crucial moment in Ostrava's liberation from Nazi control.
The memorial serves as a gathering point for annual ceremonies where veterans, local residents, and officials commemorate the sacrifices made during World War II.
Visitors can access detailed information about the liberation battle through interpretive panels installed around the memorial site, providing context in multiple languages.
The tank monument stands as physical evidence of the exact location where Czechoslovak forces successfully breached German defenses, leading to the city's freedom.
