A beautiful monument in our beautiful city! I was there before Because, alas, but I added a photo from December 05, 2024, where everyone can see how now, on December 05, 2024, the site of the former monument to Catherine looks in Odessa.
That was the beginning...(((
And the recent unanimous decision of the Odessa City Council on the demolition of the monument to Pushkin (installed during the reign of the tsar-father at the expense of the inhabitants of Odessa) this is already a continuation of today 's rampant savagery and ignorance 🤬🤦
A very majestic monument, in a beautiful place, in a beautiful city, I love Odessa very much, I would like to return to this square at least once and see everything as it was before.
God forbid someone will come to our house and touch the beautiful Catherine the Great... A true inhabitant of Odessa will not allow anyone to behave improperly at home and impose their values for nothing in life. In that case
Odessa will be the last place where you tried to destroy something and impose it on the residents of Odessa!
There is a limit to everything!
Dear youth, appreciate your history, your ancestors and take care of your home!
This monument is historically established to Empress Catherine II, as well as the monument in St. Petersburg. In modern times, four more monuments have been erected to the supporter of autocracy in the Russian Empire.
You need to know the history. And if you like it and you are interested in it, then it is all the more necessary to look at this beautiful monument. And try to guess without prompting who is depicted with Ekaterina.
Odessa is a mother! It is very beautiful in this area.

The monument was erected in 1900, a little over a hundred years after Catherine signed the decree on the foundation of the city. After the revolution, the monument was demolished, there was a bust of Karl Marx. and then the monument to the sailors of the battleship Potemkin. In 2007, the monument was returned, fortunately it was preserved in the museum, it didn't even have to be redone much...
