One of them is a monument with a height of 26 meters, dedicated to the battle with the French, which contains a list from the icon of the Smolensk Mother of God.

In the Lopatinsky Garden there is an outstanding defensive structure - the Royal Bastion, erected in the Time of Troubles, when the city was captured by the troops of the Polish king Sigismund.

One of the most beautiful places of Smolensk is the “Square of the Memory of Heroes”, where you will see at the foot of the fortress wall the Banner of Victory, hoisted over the Reichstag by a native of Smolensk Mikhail Egorov.

In the center of the square is one of the most original and memorable monuments - a monument with eagles, dedicated to the victory in the war of 1812. In this place we are transported to the time of the war with Napoleon - here is the alley of the generals of 1812, which is headed by a bust of Kutuzov and a memorial to Denis Davydov.

Estates, merchant houses, museums, the building of the former Noble Assembly - all this awaits us on the way to the Blognier garden.

Glinka, one of the first in the Russian Empire, was solemnly opened here. The monument is surrounded by an unusual openwork fence with musical lines from 24 fragments of Glinka’s works.
