Sholem Aleichem Monument, Bronze monument at Mariina Roshcha district, Moscow, Russia.
The bronze sculpture presents Sholem Aleichem standing in contemplation, with details reflecting his role as a storyteller through his posture and expression.
Created in 2001, the monument pays tribute to Sholem Aleichem, who wrote extensively about Jewish life in Eastern Europe from 1883 until his death in 1916.
The monument represents the connection between Russian and Jewish heritage through its celebration of Aleichem, who wrote over 40 volumes in Yiddish literature.
Located near Mariina Roshcha metro station, the monument provides a central meeting point for visitors interested in exploring Moscow's Jewish cultural sites.
The sculpture incorporates elements from Aleichem's most famous character, Tevye the Dairyman, which later inspired the musical Fiddler on the Roof.
