Description

A memorial stele dedicated to Vladimir Vysotsky was installed in the city park named after Vysotsky in Samara, at the intersection of Galaktionovskaya, Leningradskaya, Samara and Vysotsky streets. This monument to the famous author and musician was erected on July 23, 2000. Samara artist Alexander Temnikov created the composition, and the sculptor was Ivan Melnikov.

The stela represents a sculptural portrait of the poet in profile, as well as a white marble guitar, symbolizing his musical talent. The stone composition is engraved with lines from one of his famous songs:

"Maybe someday someone will light a candle

For my naked nerve,

in which I shout

And the cheerful manner in which I joke..."

Vysotsky Square is a place that attracts many fans of the famous bard. Young mothers with children also like to relax here. The park has a working fountain and benches. In summer, the trees growing here pleasantly protect visitors from the hot sun.

On the birthday of Vladimir Vysotsky, many fans of the bard gather in the city square, where the memorial stele is located. Here they remember the moments of his life and perform his songs.
