Monument to City of Military Glory, Military glory monument in Cathedral Square, Belgorod, Russia.

The Monument to City of Military Glory is a granite Doric column topped with a gilded coat of arms of the Russian Federation, standing on a wide pedestal that bears the text of the presidential decree granting Belgorod the title. Four corner pylons carry bas-reliefs of the city's military history, from the first Belgorod fortress to the Belgorod Regiment's banner at Poltava.

The monument was inaugurated on July 10, 2013, to commemorate Belgorod's military heritage and wartime achievements. Its creation reflects the city's recognition as a place of military significance within Russian history.

The monument serves as a gathering place for ceremonies and remembrance events that honor those who served in the military. Its prominent position in Cathedral Square makes it a focal point for community reflection and national commemoration.

The monument is centrally located in Cathedral Square and easily accessible by local public transportation and car with parking available nearby. The surrounding plaza provides open space for viewing and walking around the structure from different angles.

Sculptor Salavat Shcherbakov, a corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Arts, was part of the winning team in the open nationwide competition judged by the Russian Pobeda organizing committee; the architects were Igor Voskresensky, Galina Ishkildina and Vladimir Perfilyev. Moving Lenin's statue off Cathedral Square to make room raised the project's cost by about 12 million rubles, bringing the total to 35 million.
