Monument to three assaults on Perekopsk
Author: M.K. Plaksin
This vintage Soviet photograph from 1975 shows the Monument to the Three Assaults on Perekop, located near Simferopol, in Crimea. The memorial commemorates three key military offensives that took place on the Perekop Isthmus, the narrow land bridge connecting Crimea to mainland Ukraine — a site of fierce battles during the Russian Civil War and World War II.
Erected during the height of the Soviet era, the monument stands as a symbol of sacrifice, unity, and the strategic importance of Perekop in defending Crimea. Its bold Soviet design reflects the monumental style typical of 1970s war memorials across the USSR.
