Monument to F. E. Dzerzhinsky, Regional cultural heritage monument in Privokzalnaya Square, Taganrog, Russia.

The Monument to F. E. Dzerzhinsky stands at the end of Dzerzhinsky Street, featuring a sculpture created by A. D. Scherbakov with architectural elements by P. V. Bondarenko.

The monument commemorates Felix Dzerzhinsky, who in 1922 prevented the closure of Taganrog Metallurgical Works when the Yugostal trust began dismantling its equipment.

The monument, unveiled on November 5, 1987, represents the connection between Taganrog and Dzerzhinsky, whose father taught mathematics at the local classical men's gymnasium.

Located at coordinates 47.260921 latitude and 38.918018 longitude, the monument is accessible near the new train station in the Privokzalnaya Square area.

The monument marks the location where Dzerzhinsky's intervention saved the local metallurgical industry, transforming the economic trajectory of Taganrog during the Soviet period.
