About Oleksandrivs'kyi raion of Zaporizhzhya
What are the main landmarks in Oleksandrivs'kyi raion of Zaporizhzhya?
Monuments outnumber museums in Oleksandrivs'kyi raion. The Zaporizhzhia regional museum and the Motor Sich Museum of Technology hold the raion's collections, and the first power-station in Zaporizhzhia stands on the same list of protected sites. Beyond them the list turns to memorials: the Shepel' landing team monument, the Monument to Revkom clandestine anti-nazi group, and the Monument to victims of political repressions.
The Monument to Pushkin keeps a quieter corner of it. Number 7 Dzerzhinskoho Street is protected in its own right.
What is the history of Oleksandrivs'kyi raion of Zaporizhzhya?
Oleksandrivs'kyi raion was cut out of Zaporizhzhya in 1935. Everything the raion records of itself after that year comes as monument rather than document: the Shepel' landing team monument, the Monument to Revkom clandestine anti-nazi group, and a memorial to the workers of the Zaporizhia electric locomotive repair plant. Dzerzhinskoho Street and the Dzerzhinsky monument keep the older Soviet naming.
Against them the raion sets the Monument to victims of political repressions, a counterweight standing on the same list of protected sites. The Monument to Pushkin takes neither side.
Where is Oleksandrivs'kyi raion of Zaporizhzhya?
Oleksandrivs'kyi raion covers just over eleven square kilometres, one of seven urban raions of Zaporizhzhya. The Zaporizhzhia regional museum stands here.
