Пам'ятник Олександру Невському, Bronze monument in Velyka Panasivka district, Kharkiv, Ukraine.
This monument was a bronze statue depicting Alexander Nevsky, a medieval prince, dressed in military clothing and holding a shield. The figure rose approximately 16 feet (5 meters) tall and occupied a prominent location within a park in the Velyka Panasivka district.
The statue was installed on August 20, 2004, commemorating the 350th anniversary of Kharkiv's founding. It was dismantled in May 2022 as part of Ukraine's derussification process.
The monument represented a connection to medieval history until its removal in May 2022 as part of Ukraine's derussification initiatives.
The site was located within a park that benefited from the monument's presence, becoming a frequently visited destination for locals and visitors. The surrounding area provided easy access and regular upkeep before the statue's removal.
Military personnel secured the area during the statue's removal in 2022, using ropes and heavy equipment to take it down under curfew conditions. The dismantling took place during a significant period in the city's history.
