Monument to Peter I near the Cathedral

Description:

The monument to Peter I is the work of the famous sculptor Karbel. It rises on a granite pedestal opposite the headquarters of the Baltic Fleet. The location of the monument was chosen very symbolically, since Peter I is the founder of the Russian fleet. The monument was opened in 2003, the date is dedicated to the tricentennial of the Baltic Fleet.

This sculpture is an exact copy of the monument to the Tsar, located in the Izmailovsky Park of Moscow. Peter stands in full height (height is three meters) on a three-stage red granite base. The sculpture impresses with its grandeur and scale.

Getting to the monument is not difficult, it is located near the city center, on Mira Avenue.
