Obelisk of Glory, War memorial in Liberty Square, Tolyatti, Russia.
The Obelisk of Glory is a war memorial in Liberty Square, Tolyatti, featuring a four-sided stele with an eternal flame burning at its base. The monument displays inscriptions honoring those commemorated through this central memorial space.
The memorial opened on October 26, 1958, after local builders proposed honoring World War II fighters instead of creating a Pushkin monument. The eternal flame was later transported by armored vehicle from Samara in 1978 to ignite the memorial fire.
The monument carries the names and memories of individuals who served during World War II. These engravings were chosen to honor local heroes whose stories shaped the community across generations.
The memorial stands in a public square and is freely accessible to visit during daylight hours. The eternal flame at its base is always visible when you enter or walk through the square.
The fire itself was brought here in an unconventional way and originally came from another city in the region. This method of transport reflects the importance that was given to establishing this memorial.
