Interesting monument, you can walk around the lake to get to it. The view from monument is really nice. Worth the visit.

If you're in Murmansk, you must see this monument. It is one of the largest in the world, has great sociocultural significance in the area and in Russia in general, and provides great views of the city. Usually I would provide a more detailed description, but it seems clear to me that any trip to Murmansk requires a stop at the monument.

A great place to visit when you allready is in this dirty town. A great view of the polutet dirty city. Murmansk is probably the worst place i have ever been to.

Very impressive, huge sculpture creates an impression. There is a wall of wreaths and a continuous flame, as a memorial to the soldiers who died in world war II. The sculpture is perched on top of a hill, allowing a view of the city and marina. It is worth a visit.

Ok the monument is huge, biggest one I've seen for a while. It's also a great look out point to see Murmansk and it's docks. You know Murmansk's docks stretch for 24 km's

The view is breath-taking, the entire city and the surrounding landscape are beneath. The war memorial is indeed significant, both historically and culturally. It is better to have a guide with you to tell more or do some reading before visiting the site. It is usually windy all the year round; cold in winter. Not to be missed!

The huge statue of a soldier can be seen from virtually anywhere in Murmansk. Located at one of the highest points of the city (if not THE highest) it offers great views of not only the city itself but also the harbor. On the way you will drive past a vast amount of typical soviet housing blocks which I also enjoyed very much.

It's my profile picture in this website, so I think that says it all! It overlooks Murmansk and it's the city most important monument. It doesn't take 2nd place to the other "victory monuments" on the ex-ussr.

To me Alyosha is a very remarkable statue, given that I mostly encounter all variations on Mother Fatherland, but Murmansk has a determined-looking soldier at the peak of its monument to the heroes of the Great Patriotic War. I think it's a unique statue and the top of the mountain it's situated on gives nice views over Murmansk.

We stayed one day in Murmansk having crossed the border from Norway into Russia. It was still snowy and cold so the visit was freezing but we were determined to see something of the city and thought the views would be good from the hill on which the statue sits. We took trolleybus number 3 which runs up Lenina prospekt - the main road through the city. It costs 22rb per ticket for a single. We alighted just near the lake (a friendly local told us where to get off), crossed the road and entered near the fun fair/big wheel. If you follow the lake shore around to the right, the way to the statue will become apparent. We could have crossed the frozen lake and joined all the skiers but decided against it! At the statue there are some plaques and signs but all in Russian. There were wreaths and a lit fire also. Very impressive in its size, the statue was interesting to see close up but we didn't stay for long as it was so cold!! Good views of the port and water.
