Monument to City of Military Glory, Memorial column in Arkhangelsk, Russia.
The granite and bronze column rises from a pedestal adorned with bas-reliefs depicting military events from Arkhangelsk's past history.
The monument commemorates Arkhangelsk's designation as a City of Military Glory in 2009, recognizing its role during World War II Arctic supply convoys.
Four square pillars surrounding the central column display detailed sculptures that narrate significant moments from the city's military achievements through time.
The monument stands 6.5 meters tall in Pervomaisk district, featuring inscriptions of the Presidential Decree and the city's coat of arms.
Through this monument, Arkhangelsk joins 44 other Russian cities recognized for their military contributions, with none holding both Military Glory and Hero City titles.
