Glory Monument, Lviv, Soviet military memorial in Cultural Park, Lviv, Ukraine.

The Glory Monument features bronze figures of a Red Army soldier and Motherland figure, surrounded by high reliefs depicting military scenes.

In May 1970, sculptors Dmytro Krvavych, Emanuil Mysko, and Yaroslav Motyka constructed this monument at the former site of Stryiskyi cemetery.

The monument's inscription changed from 'Glory to the Soviet Army' to 'To the winners over Nazism' in 2007, reflecting Ukraine's evolving perspectives.

Located at the intersection of Stryiska and Heroiv Maydanu streets, visitors reach this monument through the main alley of Bohdan Khmelnytskyi Park.

The horizontal stele contains labradorite tiles and displays reliefs illustrating both Soviet Army history and the annexation of Western Ukraine.
