Пам'ятник Владиславу Городецькому, Monument to architect Vladislav Gorodetsky in central Kyiv, Ukraine
The monument displays a bronze statue of an architect seated on a bench located in the Passage, a covered shopping arcade in central Kyiv. The statue sits at a central location with good visibility and easy access from major streets and nearby tourist destinations.
The architect designed numerous notable buildings in Kyiv during the early 1900s, shaping the city's appearance for generations. The monument itself was erected in 2004 to honor his legacy and contributions to the city's architectural heritage.
The statue honors an architect whose buildings shape Kyiv's appearance today, with his distinctive works visible across the city. His structures, especially those with elaborate decorative details, have become defining elements of the city's character that both locals and visitors recognize.
The monument is located within the Passage shopping arcade, making it easy to spot while walking through the covered corridor. The site is well connected to public transportation and sits near many other attractions, allowing you to easily include it in a walking tour of the city.
The statue portrays the architect in an unusual pose, seated on a bench rather than standing in a formal or heroic stance. This choice reflects his character and makes the monument feel more personal and approachable than typical monumental statues.
