Monument to Sukhe Batoru (Ulaanbaatar)

Monument to Sukhe-Batar to the leader of the people’s revolution in Mongolia in 1921 on the central square of Ulaanbaatar, a monument was erected. In the clothes of the commander-in-chief, Sukhe-Batar sits on a horse. Right hand up. At the pedestal, which is engraved a phrase from the speech of the leader, according to Buddhist art, there are snow lions.

A project that would fully meet the needs of the Politburo of the Central Committee of the MPRP was chosen for a very long time. The first statue, made by Pomerantsev K.I. Soviet artist, was soon transferred to the Military Museum. But on the central square since 1946 on June 8 to this day is the work of Sonomyn Choimbol.

During the manufacture of this statue there were serious difficulties. The capital of Mongolia did not have such a large workshop to accommodate such a figure. The material from which the monument to Sukhe Bator was made had to be brought from other cities. However, the work was completed on time and established on the 25th anniversary of the People’s Revolution.
