Victory Monument (Tolyatti)

Memorial in Honor of the 40th Anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War (Russian: Мемориал в честь 40-летия Победы в Великой Отечественной войне) or simply Victory Monument is a 1985 monument in the Avtozavodsky (Auto Factory) District of Tolyatti dedicated to the Soviet victory in World War II (called the Great Patriotic War in Russia).

In April 2007, hooligans stole part of the framing of the eternal flame, but the vandals were soon arrested and the items recovered.

On the outer face of the foot of each stela are ledges with stylized wreaths cast from aluminum.

On its inner side is an inscription of aluminum letters: "Eternal Honor to the People's Heroism".

In the center of the monument is a star with the eternal flame, framed by five bronze sections.
