Monuments

This tag covers monuments, sculptures and memorials in Mykolaiv and other Ukrainian cities, from new memorials to fallen soldiers to the removal of Soviet and Russian ones.

In November 2023 the government removed monuments to Pushkin, Shchors, Vatutin and other Russian and Soviet figures from the national heritage register so that they could be taken down. In March 2026 the Ministry of Culture delisted two Soviet monuments in Mykolaiv. Communities in Mykolaiv Oblast are ordering memorials to soldiers: 20 in Yuzhnoukrainsk and 14 in Bashtanka.
