Feature Item

Monument to St. George the Dragon Slayer

The monument to St. George the Dragon Slayer was erected on Hryhorenka Square (former Smolky Square) in 1999 by sculptors Andriy and Volodymyr Sukhorski). The monument rises in front of the current building of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine and is dedicated to the memory of all those who have died in the fight against crime. Until 1946 a monument to Franciszek Smolka, local Polish liberal politician who lived in a building on this square (number 4) was located here.
