Liberation Monument

It was built in 1947 to honour Red Army soldiers who took part in capturing Korea from Imperial Japan during the final stage of the Second World War.

The monument is composed of a stele surmounted by a five-pointed red star, with the entire structure attaining a height of 30 meters.

Кровью, пролитой советскими воинами при освобождении Кореи, еще больше укрепились узы дружбы между корейским и советским народами.
