Lenin Monument
Unveiled in 1930, the Lenin Monument first stood in the center of Train Station Square. It was moved up the hill and placed on a larger pedestal in 1970 in connection with the national celebrations of the 100th anniversary of the birth of Lenin. There is a connection between Vladivostok’s monument to Lenin and an identical statue in St. Petersburg. Finished three years earlier than the Vladivostok Lenin, the St. Petersberg Lenin stands in front of Smolny which served as the headquarters of the October Revolution in 1917. The sculptor, V. Kozlov, was able to utilize the same forms for both monuments.
