This category collects articles about monuments, memorials, sculptural compositions, and architectural landmarks of Nizhny Novgorod and the surrounding region. Monuments are treated broadly here: from major city monuments to small forms and curious objects such as the A Tribute to Classified Ads or the The Spoon of Taste Monument".
For Nizhny Novgorod this theme is especially rich: the city preserves the memory of Minin and Pozharsky, Gorky, Chkalov, and many others — in stone, bronze, and cast iron. Among the best-known landmarks are the The Chkalov Monument on the Verkhne-Volzhskaya Embankment and the The Obelisk in Honor of Minin and Pozharsky, while the Soviet legacy is represented by numerous monuments to Lenin and memorials to the Civil War and Great Patriotic War eras.
