Alexander Nevsky Monument
This
monument, sculpted by P.S. Butenko, is made of bronze and copper.
It weighs 163 tons and is 30 meters high. The sculpture was
unveiled in 1993 in honor of Prince Alexander Yaroslavowich
Nevsky who led Russian troops in a defeat over the Germans in
1242. This famous victory was won after a “Battle
on the Ice” which took place on the frozen Neve River.
