The Alexander Fadeev Monument is a sculptural ensemble dedicated to the Soviet writer Alexander Aleksandrovich Fadeyev (1901–1956) and the heroes of his works “Defeat” and “Young Guards”.
The sculptural ensemble is on the podium-site of granite blocks. In the center there is a bronze sculpture by A. A. Fadeyev on a pedestal made of gray granite. The writer is depicted full-length, in his right hand he holds a book. The sculptor gave a characteristic Fadeev’s pose and manner to keep his head. To the left of the central sculpture are the heroes of the novel The Defeat. The bronze equestrian figures of Levinson and Metelitsa stood on the stirrups, as if preparing to rush into battle. On the right are five Komsomol members, members of the underground organization Young Guard.
