Monument to City of Military Glory, Military memorial in Taganrog, Russia
The granite and bronze monument features a central column rising 6.5 meters with four surrounding pillars displaying detailed military scenes from Taganrog's past.
The monument marks Taganrog's designation as a City of Military Glory in 2011, recognizing the defense efforts and sacrifices during World War II.
The structure incorporates bronze reliefs depicting military events, the city's coat of arms, and the presidential decree text that granted Taganrog its honorary status.
Visitors can access the monument at the Square of Military Glory near the airport, where regular commemorative ceremonies take place throughout the year.
The monument resulted from collaboration between four architects, including Igor Voskresensky and Salavat Chtcherbakov, who integrated New Classical architectural elements into the design.
