  Nakhimov Square is one of the most beautiful city squares and the oldest one . First it was named after the Russian Empress, Catherine the Great, but in 1898 the Monument to Admiral Nakhimov was erected here, and the square was renamed in memory of the outstanding Russian naval commander.

  The ships were scuttled in two lines. The first line of 7 vessels was scuttled between Alexander’s and Konstantin’s batteries.
  Later in February 1855 another 8 ships were scuttled just near the shore.
  The monument was erected just on the second line of the scuttled ships..

  In 25 meters from the embankment on the artificial rock a column rises above the sea.
  There is a bronze double-headed eagle on the top of it with extended wings. In its beaks it has an anchor and a laurel wreath, which is a symbol of the naval glory.
  Its height is over 16 meters.
