Vitya Korobkov monument in Feodosia, War memorial in Feodosia, Crimea.

The Vitya Korobkov monument is a bronze sculpture on a polished dark grey granite pedestal, set in the square on Gorky Street. It shows the barefoot pioneer-partisan creeping along a wall with a folded leaflet in his hands; the pedestal bears a gilded inscription in Ukrainian. Sculptor V. M. Podelsky and architect V. S. Kupriyanov modelled every detail, down to the folds of the clothing.

Vitya Korobkov was 12 when German troops occupied Feodosia. He carried messages between his father's underground group and partisans in the Stary Krym forest, gathered intelligence and distributed leaflets. Arrested in February 1944, he was tortured for over two weeks and shot on 9 March 1944; he was posthumously awarded the medal "For Courage". Feodosia's Komsomol members raised funds for the monument in 1957, and it was unveiled on 1 June 1959.

A pioneer's red necktie was tied to the monument throughout the Soviet period; after a pause during the Ukrainian years, Feodosia schoolchildren resumed the practice in 2016. The granite pedestal bears a Ukrainian inscription: "To the glorious pioneer-partisan Vitya Korobkov, who died fighting the fascist invaders on 9 March 1944. From the pioneers of Ukraine."

The monument stands in the square on Gorky Street, not in a park; the bronze figure of the barefoot boy is set on a polished dark-grey granite pedestal, so look for the low plinth rather than a large memorial complex. The square is a small open public space, and the inscription on the pedestal is in Ukrainian.
