Obelisk-Stela near the Anchorage of the ‘Aurora’: Naberezhnaya Krasnovo Flota (Red Navy Embankment).

The stela stands not far from Lieutenant Schmidt Bridge (former Nikolayevsky Bridge), just opposite the place where on October 25, 1917, the revolutionary cruiser Aurora heralded the victory of the Socialist Revolution by firing a salvo. The obelisk was designed by the architect A. I. Qegello and put up in 1939.
