Пам'ятник засновникам Харкова, Monument on Nauky Avenue in Kharkiv, Ukraine
The Founders of Kharkiv Monument features a bronze equestrian statue mounted on an 8.5-meter red granite pedestal at the intersection of two major avenues.
The monument was unveiled on August 22, 2004, during the celebration of Kharkiv's 350th anniversary, representing the city's founding figures and early development.
Five former mayors of Kharkiv embedded a stainless steel time capsule containing messages for future generations at the base of the monument.
The monument stands at the beginning of Nauky Avenue near Independence Avenue, accessible through multiple public transportation routes in central Kharkiv.
The bronze sculpture, weighing over 700 tons, was created by Moscow sculptor Zurab Tsereteli as a gift to commemorate the city's anniversary.
