About the place
The monument anchors a central promenade crossing as an open marker of urban heritage.
Architect Alexei Andreyuk collaborated with sculptor Alexei Pavluchuk to produce the monument as a landmark commemorating the historic milestone of Brest. The installation occupies the urban junction where Sovietskaya Street meets Gogol Street. Placing the work in the pedestrian zone turns a municipal commemoration into an everyday fixture for passersby navigating central shopping and promenade routes.

This shared financial backing reflects both government administration and civic community participation in the physical fabric of Brest. For long-term residents, the site functions primarily as an unmistakable navigation point when arranging meetings between central residential quarters.
