Ehrenmal für die gefallenen Helden der Sowjetarmee
Ehrenmal für die gefallenen Helden der Sowjetarmee, War memorial in Olbrichtplatz, Dresden, Germany
The Soviet War Memorial features bronze sculptures of two soldiers, one holding a Soviet banner while another kneels with a machine gun.
The memorial, created by Otto Rost in 1945, stands as the first monument erected on German soil to honor Soviet soldiers after World War II.
The monument includes bronze relief panels depicting military scenes, Soviet emblems, and inscriptions commemorating Red Army fighters who died for their homeland.
The memorial moved from Albertplatz to its current location near the Military History Museum in 1994, with limited wheelchair accessibility.
The monument rests on red Meissen granite, incorporating Soviet symbols such as the hammer and sickle alongside military combat representations.
