Architectural Design of the Monument
The monument is a stele that widens towards the top and is set on a low stylobate. At the top of the stele, there are relief images of a Soviet soldier in a helmet and a little girl – a symbol of protection and the liberation of the civilian population. Below, an inscription commemorates the storming of Brest by the troops of the 1st Belorussian Front.
Materials and Design
The stele is clad in polished red granite, giving it a solemn appearance. The stylobate is covered with gray marble chips, creating a contrast with the monumental structure.
Alley of Military Glory
The path leading to the monument passes through an alley with nine steles, each engraved with the names of military units and formations honored with the title of "Brest" for their heroism in liberating the city.
The "Liberation" monument is one of Brest's significant landmarks, attracting tourists and all those who wish to pay tribute to the heroes of World War II. This is a place where history and the memory of courage come alive before your eyes.
