The monument to the Heroes of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905 was laid in Vladivostok in 2006, timed to the 275th anniversary of the Pacific Fleet of Russia. The memorial, located on the grounds of the Pacific Fleet Museum, became the first monument dedicated to the Heroes of the Russo-Japanese War in Primorye, immortalizing the memory of the events of those years. This memorial expresses respect and admiration for the courage and heroism of Russian sailors, officers, and soldiers who defended their homeland.
The memorial complex consists of two parts: a semicircular rotunda with three vertical pylons and a sculpture of Archangel Michael on a quadrangular pedestal. Both compositions are faced with red marble slabs, while the area around the memorial is made of gray stone. On the horizontal panel of the rotunda, the inscription "Glory to Russian Warriors" is engraved in gold letters. In front of the rotunda stands a bronze sculpture of Archangel Michael, the patron of the heavenly host, holding a sword and shield. The bronze archangel rises on a two-meter pedestal, on the front and back sides of which are dedication inscriptions. The side faces are adorned with engraved images depicting naval and land battles of the early 20th century.
