Mother Armenia, War memorial monument in Victory Park, Yerevan, Armenia.
The Mother Armenia statue rises 51 meters above Yerevan, featuring a female warrior holding a sword atop a massive granite pedestal.
The monument replaced a statue of Joseph Stalin in 1967, marking a shift from Soviet influence to Armenian national identity through its new symbolism.
The pedestal design incorporates traditional Armenian church architecture with three naves and features stones from different regions of Armenia.
The Mother Armenia Museum of the Ministry of Defense, located inside the pedestal, contains 30,000 exhibits related to Armenian military history.
The statue's copper surface includes a small gold-covered mark on the forehead, distinguishing it from other military monuments worldwide.
