Description

Vosstaniya Square is a major square in the Central Business District of Saint Petersburg. From the 1840s to 1918 the square was known as Znamenskaya Square, after the Church of the Sign built there between 1794 and 1804 to a Neoclassical design by Fyodor Demertsov. The church building commemorated the icon of Our Lady of the Sign. The Leningrad Hero-City Obelisk – designed by architects Vladimir Lukyanov and Aleksandr Alymov – was erected on the same spot in 1985 in order to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Victory Day.
