Monument to the Kyiv Arsenal factory uprising, Revolutionary monument at Hrushevskoho Street, Kyiv, Ukraine
The Monument to the Arsenal factory uprising stands at Hrushevskoho Street and combines granite and iron with a 76mm gun mounted at the top. The gun represents the weapons used by workers during their armed resistance.
The monument honors the Arsenal factory workers who launched an armed uprising in 1918. This revolt marked a significant moment during the Soviet-Ukrainian conflicts in Kyiv.
The monument reflects the role of factory workers in shaping early Soviet history and remains a gathering point for those interested in labor movements. It stands as a symbol of how ordinary workers influenced the course of regional events.
The monument sits near Arsenalna Square in the heart of Kyiv and is easy to reach on foot. The location lies in an active area with other historical sites and public buildings nearby.
Bullet holes are still visible in a historic wall near the monument, bearing marks from the 1918 battles. These marks offer visitors a direct connection to the armed conflict of that era.
