Obelisk of Glory, War memorial in Liberty Square, Tolyatti, Russia.

The monument features a four-sided stele with three faces depicting war heroes and one showing revolutionary figure Vasily Banykin.

The obelisk opened on October 26, 1958, after local builders proposed a tribute to World War II fighters instead of a Pushkin memorial.

The monument displays engravings of pilot Victor Nosov, infantry soldier Vasily Zhilin, and seaman Eugene Nikonov who served in World War II.

The eternal flame burns continuously at the base of the monument, which visitors can observe while walking through Liberty Square.

An armored personnel carrier transported the eternal flame from Samara to Tolyatti in 1978 to ignite the memorial fire.
