Monument to soldiers of the 1st Conarmy

The monument to the soldiers of the First Cavalry Army is dedicated to the events of 1920, when during the storming of the city, the First Army suffered great losses from the cavalry corps of the White Army. The monument was erected in 1972 in the square in front of the regional administration building.

The project of the monument was created by sculptor Vuchetich and was originally intended for the memorial complex Mamaev Kurgan in Volgograd, but was later donated to Rostov-on-Don. The monument is a sculpture of three soldiers, installed on a high granite pedestal. On the front and sides of the pedestal are depicted scenes of hostilities with the participation of the First Army.
