In May, 1970 a Monument to the War Glory of the Soviet Army (in World
War II) was unveiled in the upper part of the Bohdan Khmelnytskyi

streets. The monumental complex was constructed by a group of sculptors,
including sculptors Dmytro Krvavych, Emanuyil Mysko, and Yaroslav
Motyka, painter Oleksandr Pyrozhkov, and architects Myron Vendzylovych
and Apolon Ohranovych.
