Monument to Peter I in Voronezh, Bronze statue in Petrovsky Garden, Voronezh, Russia

The monument shows Peter I in the Preobrazhensky Regiment uniform, standing with one hand resting on an anchor and the other pointing toward Azov.

The original monument from 1860 was taken by German forces during World War II, leading to its complete reconstruction and unveiling in January 1956.

The statue became an unofficial symbol of Voronezh after receiving 24.7 percent of votes in a public survey about city landmarks.

Visitors can reach the monument by following the paths through Petrovsky Garden, which connects to Lenin Square in central Voronezh.

The sculptors used Peter the Great's death mask as reference to create accurate facial features for the bronze statue.
