Orange that saved Odessa, Memorial monument in Odesa, Ukraine
The Monument to Orange stands as a metal sculpture featuring a large citrus mounted on wheels alongside depictions of Odesa's architectural elements.
During the late 18th century, Odesa officials sent 4,000 Greek oranges to Tsar Paul I, securing funds for the construction of the city port.
The monument represents a key element of Odesa's identity, displaying how local ingenuity and resourcefulness shaped the development of the city.
Visitors can reach the monument by taking public transportation to Zhvanetsky Boulevard, where numerous cafes and shops line the surrounding streets.
The metal structure incorporates sculptures of Tsar Paul I examining an orange, while miniature replicas of Odesa buildings crown the monument.
