Monument to Mykola Shchors in Kyiv, Soviet-era monument in central Kyiv, Ukraine
The Monument to Mykola Shchors features a mounted military figure crafted from granite, positioned at a central intersection near Taras Shevchenko Boulevard.
The monument, unveiled on April 30, 1954, commemorates the Soviet military commander Mykola Shchors who led battles during the Ukrainian War of Independence.
Three Ukrainian sculptors, Mykhailo Lysenko, Nikolai Suchodolow, and Vasyl Borodai, collaborated to create this representation of military leadership in Soviet Ukraine.
The monument stands at coordinates 50.445278, 30.500833, accessible via multiple public transportation routes and within walking distance of several metro stations.
The granite structure combines the work of two architects, Alexandr Vlasov and Aleksey Zavarov, who integrated the horse-mounted figure into the urban landscape.
