Monument of Stepán Makárov, Naval memorial statue in Kronstadt, Russia
The bronze statue of Admiral Stepan Makarov stands 3.5 meters tall on Anchor Square, with his hand raised in a commanding position.
Admiral Makarov, who designed the first polar icebreaker and commanded the Pacific Squadron, died in 1904 when his battleship Petropavlovsk was destroyed.
The monument features bas-reliefs depicting key moments from Makarov's life, along with his famous phrase 'Remember the War' inscribed at the base.
The statue stands in front of the Naval Cathedral of St. Nicolas, where maritime ceremonies and cadet initiations regularly take place.
The 160-ton granite pedestal spent decades underwater after sinking during transport from Finland before being recovered for this monument.
