An excerpt characterizing the Technical Monuments

“I have the honor to report to you the real truth,” Alpatych repeated.
Rostov got off the horse and, handing it over to the orderly, went with Alpatych to the house, asking him about the details of the case. Indeed, yesterday’s offer of bread by the princess to the peasants, her explanation with Dron and with the gathering spoiled the matter so much that Dron finally handed over the keys, joined the peasants and did not appear at the request of Alpatych, and that in the morning, when the princess ordered to lay the mortgage in order to go, the peasants came out in a large crowd to the barn and sent to say that they would not let the princess out of the village, that there was an order not to be taken out, and they would unharness the horses. Alpatych went out to them, advising them, but they answered him (Karp spoke the most; Dron did not show up from the crowd) that the princess could not be released, that there was an order for that; but that let the princess remain, and they will serve her as before and obey her in everything.
At that moment, when Rostov and Ilyin galloped along the road, Princess Marya, in spite of Alpatych's, nanny's and girls' dissuadement, ordered to mortgage and wanted to go; but, seeing the galloping cavalrymen, they took them for the French, the coachmen fled, and the wailing of women arose in the house.
- Father! native father! God has sent you, - tender voices said, while Rostov passed through the hall.
Princess Mary, lost and powerless, sat in the hall, while Rostov was brought in to her. She did not understand who he was, and why he was, and what would happen to her. Seeing his Russian face, and recognizing him as a man of her circle by his entrance and the first spoken words, she looked at him with her deep and radiant gaze and began to speak in a voice that broke and trembled with excitement. Rostov immediately imagined something romantic in this meeting. “Defenseless, heartbroken girl, alone, left to the mercy of rude, rebellious men! And what a strange fate pushed me here! thought Rostov, listening to her and looking at her. - And what meekness, nobility in her features and expression! he thought as he listened to her timid story.
When she started talking about how it all happened the day after her father's funeral, her voice trembled. She turned away and then, as if afraid that Rostov would not take her words for a desire to pity him, looked at him inquiringly and frightened. Rostov had tears in his eyes. Princess Mary noticed this and looked gratefully at Rostov with that radiant look of hers that made her forget the ugliness of her face.
“I can’t express, princess, how happy I am that I accidentally drove here and will be able to show you my readiness,” said Rostov, getting up. - If you please go, and I answer you with my honor that not a single person will dare to make trouble for you if you only allow me to escort you, - and, bowing respectfully, as they bow to the ladies of royal blood, he went to the door.
By the respectfulness of his tone, Rostov seemed to show that, despite the fact that he would consider his acquaintance with her to be happiness, he did not want to use the opportunity of her misfortune to get closer to her.
Princess Marya understood and appreciated this tone.
“I am very, very grateful to you,” the princess told him in French, “but I hope that it was all just a misunderstanding and that no one is to blame for that. The princess suddenly burst into tears. “Excuse me,” she said.
Rostov, frowning, bowed deeply once more and left the room.

- Well, honey? No, brother, my pink charm, and Dunyasha's name is ... - But, looking at Rostov's face, Ilyin fell silent. He saw that his hero and commander were in a completely different line of thought.
Rostov looked angrily at Ilyin and, without answering him, quickly walked towards the village.
- I'll show them, I'll ask them, the robbers! he said to himself.
Alpatych with a floating step, so as not to run, barely caught up with Rostov at a trot.
- What decision would you like to make? he said, catching up with him.
Rostov stopped and, clenching his fists, suddenly moved menacingly towards Alpatych.
– Decision? What's the solution? Old bastard! he shouted at him. - What were you watching? BUT? The men are rioting, and you can't handle it? You yourself are a traitor. I know you, I'll skin everyone... - And, as if afraid to waste his ardor in vain, he left Alpatych and quickly went forward. Alpatych, suppressing the feeling of insult, kept up with Rostov with a floating step and continued to tell him his thoughts. He said that the peasants were stagnant, that at the present moment it was imprudent to fight them without having a military team, that it would not be better to send for a team first.
“I will give them a military command ... I will oppose them,” Nikolai said senselessly, choking on unreasonable animal malice and the need to vent this anger. Without realizing what he would do, unconsciously, with a quick, decisive step, he moved towards the crowd. And the closer he moved to her, the more Alpatych felt that his imprudent act could produce good results. The peasants of the crowd felt the same way, looking at his quick and firm gait and his determined, frowning face.
After the hussars entered the village and Rostov went to the princess, confusion and discord occurred in the crowd. Some peasants began to say that these newcomers were Russians and no matter how offended they were by not letting the young lady out. Drone was of the same opinion; but as soon as he expressed it, Karp and other peasants attacked the former headman.
- How many years have you eaten the world? Karp shouted at him. - You don't care! You will dig a little egg, take it away, what do you want, ruin our houses, or not?
- It is said that there should be order, no one should go from the houses, so as not to take out a blue gunpowder - that's it! shouted another.
“There was a queue for your son, and you must have felt sorry for your baldness,” the little old man suddenly spoke quickly, attacking Dron, “but he shaved my Vanka. Oh, let's die!
- Then we will die!
“I am not a refuser from the world,” said Dron.
- That’s not a refuser, he has grown a belly! ..
Two long men were talking. As soon as Rostov, accompanied by Ilyin, Lavrushka and Alpatych, approached the crowd, Karp, putting his fingers behind his sash, smiling slightly, stepped forward. The drone, on the contrary, went into the back rows, and the crowd moved closer.
- Hey! who is your elder here? - shouted Rostov, quickly approaching the crowd.
- Is that the elder? What do you want? .. – asked Karp. But before he had time to finish, his hat fell off him and his head jerked to one side from a strong blow.
- Hats off, traitors! Rostov's full-blooded voice shouted. - Where is the elder? he shouted in a furious voice.
“The headman, the headman is calling ... Dron Zakharych, you,” hurriedly submissive voices were heard somewhere, and hats began to be removed from their heads.
“We can’t rebel, we observe the rules,” said Karp, and at the same moment several voices from behind suddenly began to speak:
- As the old men murmured, there are a lot of you bosses ...
- Talk? .. Riot! .. Robbers! Traitors! Rostov yelled senselessly, in a voice not his own, grabbing Karp by Yurot. - Knit him, knit him! he shouted, although there was no one to knit him, except for Lavrushka and Alpatych.
Lavrushka, however, ran up to Karp and grabbed him by the arms from behind.
- Will you order ours from under the mountain to call? he shouted.
Alpatych turned to the peasants, calling two by name to knit Karp. The men obediently left the crowd and began to unbelt.
- Where is the elder? shouted Rostov.
Drone, with a frown and pale face, stepped out of the crowd.
- Are you an elder? Knit, Lavrushka! - shouted Rostov, as if this order could not meet obstacles. And indeed, two more peasants began to knit Dron, who, as if helping them, took off his kushan and gave it to them.
- And you all listen to me, - Rostov turned to the peasants: - Now the march to the houses, and so that I don’t hear your voice.
“Well, we didn’t make any offense. We are just being stupid. They’ve only done nonsense… I told you it was disorder,” voices were heard reproaching each other.
“So I told you,” Alpatych said, coming into his own. - It's not good, guys!
“Our stupidity, Yakov Alpatych,” voices answered, and the crowd immediately began to disperse and scatter around the village.
The bound two peasants were taken to the manor's yard. Two drunk men followed them.
- Oh, I'll look at you! - said one of them, referring to Karp.
“Is it possible to speak to gentlemen like that?” What did you think?
“Fool,” another confirmed, “really, fool!”
Two hours later the carts were in the courtyard of Bogucharov's house. The peasants were eagerly carrying out and stacking the master's things on the carts, and Dron, at the request of Princess Mary, released from the locker where he was locked up, standing in the yard, disposed of the peasants.

Today, at a staff meeting, the Governor of the Chelyabinsk Region, Boris Dubrovsky, instructed to resolve the issue of bringing the monuments dedicated to the Great Patriotic War into the proper form: During a recent video conference with veterans, I was instructed to keep a record of all the monuments to the Victory in the Chelyabinsk Region and put them in order. Then we thought that we had 360 of them, now it turned out that there are almost twice as many of them - 686, and 113 of them are in an unsatisfactory condition. I instruct to complete the work before the end of the first quarter, I ask you to connect to the control of our deputies, the Council of Veterans, an active member of the movement "For the revival of the Urals." I see no difficulty in putting things in order in this matter."

It is clear that all this is not only in honor of May 9, but also in honor of the 70th anniversary of Great Victory. And the thing is really necessary, and it is more necessary for us, for those who know this war only from films and history books. To remember. For a man lives as long as his memory lives on. Remember our heroes, the Urals, who not only fought, but also did everything in the rear, so that the country would win.

Not many monuments dedicated to the war, I know. Unfortunately. But here are the ones that first come to mind when it comes to Tankograd:

1. "Sister"

It was opened in 2005 on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Victory as a token of gratitude to all the women who fought and saved the lives of soldiers. In Russia, this is one of the few monuments dedicated to nurses at the front.

2. Monument to the tank IS-3

ISs were popularly called "pikes". In fact, the IS-3 did not participate in large-scale battles of the Great Patriotic War and World War II, because it went into serial production at the Chelyabinsk Tractor Plant at the very end of the war. But there were Stalinist "pikes" in the Victory Parade in Berlin and Potsdam. By the way, in Chelyabinsk, a monument to IS was erected on the 20th anniversary of the Victory.

3. Monument to the workers of the home front "Katyusha" in the park near the Palace of Culture. Kolyushchenko

Installed in honor of the 30th anniversary of the Victory. Chelyabinsk is directly related to the production of the legendary artillery systems. In the autumn of 1941, the plant them. Kolyushchenko was ordered to urgently launch the production of Katyusha rocket launchers and shells for them, for which equipment from various enterprises of the country arrived in the city. There was not enough factory space for this, so additional premises were allocated along Zheleznodorozhnaya Street and a building located at the corner of Elkina and Trud streets.

The Koluschens placed the arrived workers in apartments and jointly began to prepare for the release of weapons for the Red Army. On the installation of equipment worked for 15-18 hours. Many did not leave the factory at all. Workshop No. 3 was built on its territory, where the final assembly of the Katyushas was carried out. At the beginning of 1942, the first Chelyabinsk Katyusha rocket launchers, covered with a tarpaulin, left the gates of shop No. 5 and sent to the front.

4. Monument to the Defenders of the Fatherland

It was opened in 1975, on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Victory, and is located in the Victory Square at the ChMZ.

5. Monument to tankers near school No. 2 on the street. Ovchinnikova

One of the oldest monuments dedicated to the Victory and tank volunteers of the Chelyabinsk region. In the building of secondary school No. 2 in 1942, the 96th Tank Brigade named after I.I. Chelyabinsk Komsomol. In the fall of 1941, the Komsomol members of the Chelyabinsk Abrasive Plant appealed to the youth of the region with a call to organize a fundraiser in order to create a tank column named after the Chelyabinsk Komsomol. In a short time, more than 11.5 million rubles were collected. The 96th Volunteer Tank Brigade entered fighting in the summer of 1942 on the left bank of the Don. Participated in Battle of Stalingrad, battle on Kursk Bulge, liberation of Belgorod, Kharkov and other cities.

6. Soviet Icarus

Monument to the graduates of the Chelyabinsk Higher Military Aviation School of Navigators (CHVVAUSh), who fell in the battles of the Great Patriotic War. During the war years, the school graduated 10 thousand aviation specialists, 41 graduates were awarded the title of Hero Soviet Union. The monument was erected on the central alley, on the territory of the school on October 1, 1966. The inscription on the pedestal: "Eternal Glory to the pupils of the school who died in the battles for the Soviet Motherland."

The monument is located in the southern part of the Kirov Square in front of the educational buildings of the Ural federal university(former Ural Polytechnic Institute).

Against the background of an unfolded red banner, there are three bronze figures: a warrior who raised his machine gun high, a nurse girl and a wounded sailor clutching a grenade.

On the pedestal there is an inscription: "To our comrades who died in the battles for the Motherland."

On the reverse side of the banner there are words: “The memory of the heroes of the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945 will not be erased for centuries. From the Komsomol members of the Ural Polytechnic Institute. S.M. Kirov. May 9, 1961"

This is the first monument to the heroes of the Great Patriotic War in the city.

Monument to the wars of the Ural Volunteer Tank Corps

In 1962, a monument to the wars of the Ural Volunteer Tank Corps was opened on the Railway Station Square.

An old worker, symbolizing the gray-haired working Urals, escorts a young warrior tanker into battle. The pedestal of the monument is made in the form of a tank. A worker and a tanker are standing on the turret of a tank moving forward.

On the sides of the pedestal, where the tank has caterpillars, the ledges on which depict the labor and combat exploits of the Urals during the Great Patriotic War.

The inscription on the pedestal: "To the heroes of the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. soldiers of the Ural volunteer tank corps from the workers of the Sverdlovsk region.

“The front was fiery - this is known.
But the rear was also fiery.
In inextinguishable furnaces everywhere
The rumble of planned battles floated.
And machines of thunder and steel
Reflected in the Iset River
We started an offensive in the Urals
On the Kursk Bulge.
Time turns into a flame
In marble, bronze and resistant granite.
Today is a monument - a city of memory,
Keeps the past for posterity"

On March 11, 1983, when the 40th anniversary of the Ural Volunteer Tank Corps was celebrated, Station Square was renamed the area of ​​the Ural Volunteer Tank Corps.

Memorial to Uralmash workers who died during the Great Patriotic War

On May 8, 1969, on the First Five-Year Plan Square, in the square at the intersection of Mashinostroiteley streets and Kultury Boulevard, a memorial was opened to the Uralmash workers who died on the fronts of the Great Patriotic War.

The memorial is made of granite and labrodorite.
In the center is a stele, on which, against the background of half-mast banners, workers are depicted bowing their heads in memory of their fallen comrades. One of them knelt before the banners.
To the left are labrodorite slabs. On the plates are the names of almost a thousand Uralmash workers who died with the enemy. Against the background of a black stone, blue blotches are visible - a symbol of frozen tears, a symbol of sorrow.
The list is opened by 3 names of the heroes of the Soviet Union. These are pilots Vladimir Sergeevich Kurochkin and Nikita Nikolaevich Dyakonov and the legendary intelligence officer Nikolai Ivanovich Kuznetsov.
The words are carved on the memorial: “To the courage of proud hearts. To our fathers, brothers, and sisters, who defended our Motherland with their lives. Know, who listens to this stone, with the immortality of the brave put it for centuries. Uralmash is grateful. No one is forgotten and nothing is forgotten!”

Initially, at the memorial every half an hour from 8.30 to 22.00 Schumann's melody "Dreams" and the words uttered by Yuri Levitan sounded: "The memory of you, sons of Russia, glorious Uralmash warriors, will be eternal. The blood shed by you for the Motherland will glorify your feat through the ages, and your grateful descendants will forever keep your names in their hearts. Eternal glory to the heroes who fell in the battles for the freedom and independence of our Motherland.”

Shirokorechensky memorial in memory of the soldiers who died of wounds in the hospitals of the city of Sverdlovsk

During the Great Patriotic War, Yekaterinburg-Sverdlovsk was a city of hospitals. The wounded, who died in hospitals, were buried in different cemeteries. The largest burial was at the Shirokorechenskoye cemetery.

On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Victory, a memorial was opened at the Shirokorechenskoye cemetery to soldiers who died of wounds in hospitals. By the 40th anniversary of the victory, the memorial was reconstructed. A new obelisk made of red granite 28 m high was installed.

On the left side of the memorial there is a mass grave of soldiers.

On the right front corner of the mass grave, a laurel wreath is a symbol of the glory of the winners. On the memorial wall is the glory: "Your feat is immortal." The foundation of the memorial is concrete slabs. The plates are not connected to each other. In summer, green grass breaks through between the plates - a symbol of continuing life.

Monument to scouts-motorcyclist


In 1995, in the Central Park of Culture and Leisure named after Mayakovsky, a monument was erected to the soldiers-motorcyclists of the 7th separate guards reconnaissance battalion.
The place for the monument was not chosen by chance. On the territory of the park, trainings of future scouts of motorcyclists were held.
The author of the monument is the architect G.A. Golubev.
The monument is made in the form of a broken motorcycle wheel. The spokes of the wheel symbolize the rays of glory. A motorcyclist rushes along the rim of the wheel, a fight is going on behind him. On the outer rim are the names of 133 scouts under the names of the operations that became their last, and the military address of the battalion: “Field mail 51123”.

Monument "Gray Ural"

On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Victory in May 2005, the monument "Gray Ural" was solemnly opened on Oborony Square.

Oborony Square (former Nochlezhnaya, Simeonovskaya, Maxim Gorky Square) received its name in the forties of the 20th century. During the Great Patriotic War, Sverdlovsk residents saw off their relatives and friends to the front from this square.


The monument "Gray Ural" is dedicated to the labor and military feat of the Urals.
A huge bronze sculpture of a master blacksmith, holding a sword sheathed in his hand, personifies the Gray Ural, who forged weapons for the front throughout the war years and sent his best sons and daughters to the battlefields. The height of the sculpture together with the pedestal is 12 meters.

On the monument there are inscriptions: "To the Urals who forged the victory" and "To the Urals - defenders of the Motherland".

Monument to Marshal Zhukov G.K.

The monument was erected on Lenin Avenue on the square in front of the headquarters of the Central Military District (formerly the Urals, and then the Volga-Urals).

In 1948-1953 Marshal Zhukov G.K. was the commander of the Ural military district.

The author of the monument is the sculptor Grunberg K.V. depicted the marshal astride a rearing horse. Once, during a parade on the square in 1905, Zhukov rode around the troops, sitting on horseback. And from the loud cheers of "Uraaa!" the marshal's horse reared up. This moment was captured by K.V. Grunberg.

A monument was cast at Uralmashzavod. They say that the commission that accepted the monument did not want to allow its installation for a long time. The reason for the doubts was the stability of the sculpture. The Uralmash masters found a solution - they remade the horse's legs, replacing the hollow structure with a frame with a monolithic one.

The monument was opened to the 50th anniversary of the Victory on May 8, 1995.
The monument was created with public money. On the pedestal of the monument there is an inscription: "To Zhukov G.K., a soldier and marshal from the Urals."

Memorial to the children of war and home front workers


The memorial is located in the park near the Mashinostroiteley metro station at the intersection of Cosmonauts Avenue and Frontovye Brigade Street in the Ordzhonikidzevsky District.
The place for the monument was not chosen by chance: it was in this area that the largest factories in the region that produced products for the front were located. On the land where the memorial now stands, during the war years there were barracks in which workers who came from everywhere to the Urals lived. Here, within easy reach of all the heroic factories.
The initiative to create such a monument 10 years ago was made by the veterans of the Uralelectrotyazhmash plant, who were children during the war and worked in the factory workshops. In 2006, a stone was laid at this place indicating that a monument would appear here. The memorial was opened in November 2014.
The central sculpture, 3.5 meters high, depicts children. A boy and a girl carry a symbolic cross, made from shells and parts for military equipment, a cross of hard work in the name of Victory.
Behind the sculpture is a 13-meter-high 3-meter-high bas-relief - a kind of cast-iron foundry lace. On the bas-relief there is an inscription "And we will live! And we will remember!"
Another iconic element of the composition is the clock on the sidewalk, a symbol of the uninterrupted operation of factories during the war years, and the rails along which finished products were sent to the front.

In building memorial complex sculptor Konstantin Grunberg, architect Yuri Doroshin, employees of the Academician Belyankin Architectural Workshop and the Foundry Yard foundry took part.

Monument to military doctors

The monument to military doctors was opened on the 70th anniversary of the Victory on May 7, 2015 at the main entrance to the hospital for war veterans.
The idea of ​​its creation appeared 20 years ago, but then there was not enough money to implement it. Now the Urals have raised funds from the whole world. It took about nine million rubles to manufacture and install the monument, while not a penny was spent from the budget.
The bronze sculpture, over four meters high and weighing five tons, is a collective image of a military doctor and a nurse against the background of a tree split by a shell, fragments of a mine and railway rails.
The authors of the monument are the Ural sculptors Fedor and Alexander Petrov.

The city of Chelyabinsk has a rich history, a special page of which was the years of the Great Patriotic War. As a rear city, Chelyabinsk played an important role in the victory over fascism. After all, it was here, in just 33 days, that the mass production of T-34 tanks was mastered and established, and their assembly was put on the conveyor. It is no coincidence that during the war years the city was called Tankograd. Today, memorials and monuments on its streets and squares testify to the exploits of Chelyabinsk residents.

Monument to tank volunteers

The main memorial dedicated to the Great Patriotic War was installed in Chelyabinsk on Myasnaya Square. It was here, on May 9, 1943, that volunteers going to the front took an oath to fellow countrymen - fighters of the 63rd volunteer Chelyabinsk tank brigade of the volunteer Ural tank corps. This memorial, made by the sculptor L. Golovnitsky in collaboration with the architect E. Alexandrov, is a kind of symbol of the unity of the rear and the front.

And next to the five-meter bronze figure of a volunteer tanker, calling with a wave of his hand into battle, an “Eternal Flame” was installed in memory of the fallen heroes.

Chelyabinsk "Eternal Flame"

The "eternal flame" in Chelyabinsk was lit in honor of the 20th anniversary of the victory, in honor of those Chelyabinsk residents who did not return home from the war. A large cast-iron star, in the center of which a fire always burns, is framed by a wreath of laurel and oak leaves. Here, on granite slabs, the names of the South Urals are carved, 250 heroes who died liberating their land from the enemy. Among them are holders of the Orders of the Red Banner and Heroes of the Soviet Union.

There are also monuments in Chelyabinsk, reminiscent of other wars in which its inhabitants died.

Monument "Eaglet"

So, the famous monument "Eaglet" is dedicated to the Komsomol members, the heroes of the Civil War in the Urals. It was installed on the day of the 40th anniversary of the Lenin Komsomol, in 1958, on the Scarlet Field of Chelyabinsk. Subsequently, it was recognized as one of the best monuments of domestic sculpture, for which its creator, sculptor L.N. Golovnitsky, was awarded the Lenin Komsomol Prize.

This majestic monument weighing 180 tons is located on the Walk of Fame, next to the "Eternal Flame" and the monument to tank volunteers.

Memorial "Soldiers of law and order" in Chelyabinsk

And not so long ago, a memorial was solemnly opened in Chelyabinsk in memory of Chelyabinsk law enforcement officers who died in the line of duty. The monument was named "Soldiers of law and order", and its opening was timed to coincide with the Day of the employee of the internal affairs bodies.

The memorial is a four-meter sculpture of a Chelyabinsk policeman covering a child with his hand. And behind it - plates with the names of the dead law enforcement officers, residents of the Chelyabinsk region, carved on them. The memorial is located near the building of the local history museum.

Monument "The Tale of the Urals"

Created on the basis of the fairy tales of P. Bazhov, the monument "The Tale of the Urals" is a powerful 12-meter stone sculpture of a giant with a huge belt - a symbol of the Urals (the name "Ural" is translated from Bashkir as "belt"). In the hands of the giant is a huge hammer - evidence of the labor merits of the South Ural residents.

This monument was erected on the forecourt as the personification of power and strength. Southern Urals in 1967.

Monument to Kurchatov in Chelyabinsk

There is also an original monument in Chelyabinsk to the famous nuclear academician, Igor Vasilyevich Kurchatov, who discovered the fission of the atomic nucleus. It was installed on the border of Lenin Avenue and the Chelyabinsk park named after Yuri Gagarin for the 250th anniversary of the city, in 1986.

The originality of this monument lies in its extraordinary illumination. After all, according to the idea of ​​the author, sculptor Vardkes Avakyan, in the evening atomic nucleus and the monument itself had to be illuminated thanks to the installed lamp from the aircraft. True, for some technical reasons, this design ceased to operate shortly after the opening, but 20 years later, in 2006, the illumination of the atom and the entire memorial was restored and even supplemented. So in the evening this monument looks especially impressive.

"Sphere of Love"

This sculptural and landscape composition, beloved by Chelyabinsk residents, is installed in the center of Chelyabinsk, not far from the Kinomax-Ural complex. Since 2000, wedding processions have stopped here. To romantic music, the newlyweds give each other an oath of fidelity and love. This is such a beautiful tradition.

Monument to the Professional Beggar

But those who want to improve their material well-being come to the sculpture of a professional beggar and put money in his bronze hat. Chelyabinsk residents believe that if you do it from the heart, and even stroke the bald head of the sculpture, the Lord will send good luck and prosperity.

On the Alley of Heroes of the Moscow Automobile Plant named after I. A. Likhachev, a memorial was erected in honor of the military and labor feats of automakers during the Great Patriotic War.

The plant sent 16 thousand people to the front. Of these, three armored units were formed: the 63rd separate tank brigade, which began its journey near Naro-Fominsk, and two separate units of the 24th tank brigade. Hundreds of plant soldiers were awarded high government awards. 16 Zilovites became Heroes of the Soviet Union.

The Memorial of Glory is a granite stele with a relief image of three warriors. On the stele there is a laurel branch with a red five-pointed star, the names of the dead car factory workers are carved above them. Next to the stele on a bronze plate is the inscription: "Avtozavodtsy - avtozavodtsam!

Bauman (2nd Baumanskaya St., 5), a monument was erected to students and teachers of the oldest Moscow university who died on the fronts of the Great Patriotic War. A half-figure of a young soldier in a cape and with a machine gun on his chest was carved from a white stone block. On the face of the block there is an inscription: "Baumans who fell in the battles for the Motherland".

Two special artillery schools were formed in Moscow: the 1st was located in Shmitovsky passage on Krasnaya Presnya, and the 2nd - in the area of ​​​​Kropotkinskaya street, in Chertolsky lane.

On October 22, 1982, a commemorative sign made in the form of a gray granite stele was solemnly opened near school No. 29 in Chertolsky lane, where the 2nd special art school was located. On its right side there is a high-figure high relief depicting a group of art school graduates, on the left side there are engraved silhouettes of a fluttering ribbon, a Komsomol badge and the inscription: "To Pupils of Moscow Special Artillery Schools Who Showed Courage and Heroism in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945".

For pupils of Moscow schools

Their lives were cut short near Kursk and Rzhev, in Poland and Germany, but now they again gathered at the walls of their native school to say to their surviving comrades and today's students: "Be worthy of the memory of the fallen." These words were carved on the basis of a monument built according to the design of the former students of this school - the sculptor D. Yu. Mitlyansky, the architects E. A. Rosenblum and P. I. Skokan.

The history of the creation of the monument is as follows. In 1968, at the All-Union Art Exhibition "50th Anniversary of the Komsomol" in the Central Exhibition Hall, the sculptural group "Requiem of the 41st" by D. Mitlyansky was exhibited. The sculptor dedicated his work to the memory of his schoolmates, with whom he volunteered for the front in 1941. It was then that the students offered to install this sculptural composition in their school yard.

On the pedestal of the monument there is a memorial plaque with the names of 100 teachers and students of school No. 110 who died in the battles against fascism.

On Medvedev Street, 5, in the public garden of school No. 175, there is a monument-stele made of white stone to pupils of schools in the Sverdlovsk (now Frunzensky) district of the capital, who died on the fronts of the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945.

On it are carved the penetrating lines:

Let me not name all the names, There is no blood relatives. Am I alive because they died? What I owe them, I know. And let not only the verse, My life will be worthy of their soldier's death.

The monument was built on a voluntary basis by the sculptor V. B. Shelov and the architect M. N. Bylinkin. The opening took place on October 28, 1968.

A white marble obelisk, bordered by black granite, is installed in the courtyard of School No. 350 on 11th Park Street. On one of its planes, the names of teachers and students of this school who fell in battles for the Motherland are carved, and the words:

He is wearing a helmet with a star, a machine gun in his hand, a cape fluttering in the wind behind him. The inscription reads: "No one is forgotten and nothing is forgotten. To the pupils of the school."

The monument to 13 former students and teachers of the school, whose names are inscribed in gold on the memorial plaque, was erected by young patriots on their own initiative and with their own funds received from the delivery of scrap metal.

Now every year, at the monuments to pupils of Moscow schools, first-graders are attached to their chests a five-pointed October star with the image of young Ilyich, third-grade students are accepted as pioneers, and high school students are given Komsomol tickets.

Next to the obelisk is a sculptural figure of a woman. As if unable to come to terms with the fact that forever, without return, her relatives passed away, she - mother and wife - froze in mournful silence. Her son snuggled up to her. He sadly looks at the soldier's helmet, which lies at the foot of the marble obelisk, which is crowned with a golden star. On the obelisk there is the emblem of the railway workers and the inscription: "Eternal glory to the heroes who fell in the battles for the freedom and independence of our Motherland.
