Square “Fight to the bitter end!”

In the centre of the square there is a round pool symbolizing the Volga, with a figure of a Soviet soldier rising from the water. The warrior is a part of his native land that gives him power for the struggle against the enemy. It is a deeply emotional generalized image of a Stalingrad defender.
