PADUO POCTOBA - Памятник Куникову - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

A monument to Caesar Kunikov will be erected in Rostov. Representatives of the Rostov Naval Assembly decided to immortalize in bronze the commander of the marines who captured the Malaya Zemlya bridgehead in 1943. The Soviet hero will be depicted in full growth on a sea boulder and with binoculars in his hands. The two-meter sculpture has already begun to be cast, after which it will be fixed on a granite pedestal. Initially, the monument was going to be installed near the nautical school on Sedov, but now the author Sergei Oleshnya insists on moving the monument.

Another work by Sergei Oleshnya will appear on the border of the Rostov region and the Stavropol Territory next year. In memory of the battle on the Kalalakh River in 1774. Then a thousand Cossacks led by Matvey Platov defeated the 20,000-strong Turkish-Tatar army. A 5-meter high equestrian monument to the Count-Ataman will be erected at the site of the battle.
