Soyuz carrier rocket monument, Space memorial in Samara, Russia
The Soyuz carrier rocket monument displays a genuine R-7 11A511 rocket mounted vertically on a dedicated building, reaching 50 meters in height.
The monument, established in 2001, marks the 50th anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's first space flight and features a rocket previously used for training at Plesetsk Cosmodrome.
The adjacent Space Museum contains exhibits of rocket engines, landing sections, and technical equipment that demonstrate Russian achievements in space exploration.
Visitors can find the monument at the intersection of Lenina Avenue and Novo-Sadovaya Street, with the museum opening its doors to the public every day.
The displayed rocket weighs 20 tons and rests upon a 53-ton support structure, painted in a distinct white and orange pattern after its retirement from service.
