In the 1930s, in the city of Tyumen on the territory of the former cattle burial ground, now this Birch Grove Square, as well as the Dosaaf airfield, mass graves of victims of political repression were carried out. Later, on the initiative of local authorities, at the expense of the city and regional budgets, a monument was erected here. The authors of the monument are Tyumen architects O. P. Andreev and A. I. Klimenko. The grand opening of the Monument to the Victims of Political Repression took place on October 30, 1997.

On the monument there is a laconic inscription "On this territory the ashes of victims of mass repressions of 1937-1938 are buried." Their eternal memory! The monument reminds guests and residents of Tyumen about the innocent victims of that troubled time, often there are rallies and meetings of activists.
