A memorial complex with a monumental stele resembling a spread banner at the center, was constructed at the place where a command post of one of the сompanies of the 189th rifle division was located. The dynamics of the structure is strengthened by a bas-relief of Leningrad defenders. “1941 – 1945” is written below the bas-relief. The inscription at the backside of the monument reads “The enemy didn’t cross this line in September of Nineteen Forty One. Leningrad soldiers held this soaked in heroes’ blood line firm. The enemy was defeated in severe battles. The siege was lifted by a powerful attack.”
From here the 110th infantry corps started the attack to lift the siege of Leningrad in January of 1944.
The complex was designed by architects V.A. Neverov, V.A. Sidorov, V.P. Boytsov, F.A. Yenikeev and sculptors I.A. Syroyezhkin and E.V. Cherkasov.
Two 57 mm guns stand on two differentsized pedestals on the north bank of the Kuzminki River not far from the memorial.
