The most part of Volgograd’s residents saw this monument only on the photos, because it is located on the territory of the Tractor Plant, at the central checkpoint.

The sculptural composition was installed on the 17th of June, 2005 in honor of the 75th anniversary of the first victory of the STZ-the first Russian tractor STZ — 1 came off the assembly line of the enterprise. This event marked the beginning of the development of domestic tractor construction. The monument is made of bronze and forged copper, its height is 6 meters. The author of the project is the People’s Artist of the Russian Federation, Volgograd sculptor Viktor Georgievich Fetisov.
