Permda o‘rnatilgan Tatishev haykali, Bronze memorial statue in Perm, Russia.
The Tatishchev Monument in Perm is a four-metre bronze figure of Vasily Nikitich Tatishchev in a billowing cloak, holding the plan of the Yegoshikha factory. It stands on a 4.5-metre pedestal clad in polished red granite, whose bronze relief cartouche reads "Founder of the city of Perm — TATISHCHEV — Vasily Nikitich". A stepped granite base carries two mortars and cast-iron cannonballs.
The monument honors a figure who played a key role in managing industrial facilities under Peter the Great during the early 1700s. The statue itself was installed in the 2000s as a way to recognize this person's contribution to the region's industrial growth.
The bronze relief cartouche on the pedestal reads "Основатель города Перми Татищев Василий Никитич" — founder of the city of Perm, Vasily Nikitich Tatishchev. The monument was installed on 11 June 2003 for Perm's 280th anniversary, and a granite stepped base beside it holds two mortars and cast-iron cannonballs.
The statue is located in the central part of the city at a major street intersection and is easy to reach on foot from nearby areas. The setting provides space to view and photograph the monument from multiple angles without obstruction.
The granite stepped base carries two mortars and cast-iron cannonballs, a detail many visitors walk past. The monument was cast in Nizhny Tagil and brought to Perm on 27 May 2003, ahead of its unveiling on 11 June 2003 for the city's 280th anniversary.
