Chelyabinsk kolkhoznik tank monument

The Chelyabinsk kolkhoznik tank monument features a T-34 tank positioned on the northwestern slope of Mamayev Kurgan. The placement against the hillside allows visitors to view the vehicle from multiple angles and understand its scale.

The tank honors soldiers from the 21st Army of the Don Front who fought alongside the 62nd Army in January 1943. This campaign marked a crucial turning point in the Soviet defense against invasion.

The monument's name connects it to an industrial city that manufactured tanks during the war. Visitors can see how local production and military service were linked together.

The memorial can be accessed via Zemlyachki Street at number 86 and sits on the slope of Mamayev Kurgan. Visitors can reach it on foot, and guided tours are available to explain the site's background.

The tank comes from production at a city that manufactured thousands of vehicles for the Soviet war effort. Its name is a direct reference to this production facility and its role in victory.
