Монумент тулякам – Героям Советского Союза, Soviet Heroes Monument in Tula, Russia.
The monument features three triangular bayonets made of steel and concrete rising toward the sky, forming the centerpiece of a memorial complex. A flame of remembrance and engraved metal plaques along the grounds create a space dedicated to honoring fallen soldiers.
The memorial was built in 1968 to honor over 250 residents of Tula who received the Hero of the Soviet Union title during World War II. It stands as a testament to the city's military contributions during that period.
The memorial serves as a gathering place where residents come together each year to honor those who fought for their city. Local ceremonies and remembrance events center on this site, making it a focal point for community reflection.
The site is located on Maurice Thorez Street and remains open to visitors year-round without restrictions. The central location makes it accessible and easy to reach for anyone wishing to pay respects or learn about the memorial.
The names of 84 local soldiers who died in combat are engraved on metal plaques along a concrete wall beside the monument. These personal inscriptions transform the memorial into an individual remembrance for each soldier.
