Independence Monument in Kyiv: photos, reviews

About

The Independence Monument in Kyiv stands as a towering tribute to Ukraine's journey to sovereignty. Rising 61 meters above Maidan Nezalezhnosti, this striking victory column, unveiled in 2001, blends Ukrainian Baroque and Empire styles, creating an imposing yet elegant presence in the city's skyline. Atop the column, the bronze statue of Berehynia, cradling a rose branch, adds a touch of grace and resilience; its 20-ton structure symbolizing strength. The monument is not only an impressive architectural feat but also a peaceful haven, offering reflection for both citizens and visitors. Its central location makes it easily accessible, and its grandeur and historical significance make it a must-see in Kyiv, appealing to both adults and children alike.

Монумент Незалежності розташований на Майдані Незалежності у Києві. Це висока тріумфальна колона облицьована білим мармуром. Заввишки більше 60 метрів. На верхівці колони скульптура жінки-берегині, що тримає у руках над головою калинову гілку. Монумент було встановлено у 2001 році, з тих пір це одна з візитівок столиці.
