Památník U Ivana

The tallest of the three memorials in the park between Sadová and Strojírenská Streets commemorates the dreadful days of the end of the war. At the beginning of May 1945, the German troops had already surrendered in many places; in Žďár nad Sázavou there was still a fierce fight. The city lay at the crossroads of the then important roads and the retreat lasted for German soldiers longer. Upon their departure they destroyed 33 city buildings. On 9 May, the Germans executed the enemies on the square. Only a day later around six o'clock in the morning, a reconnaissance unit of the second Ukrainian front of Marshal Rodion Yakovlevich Malinovsky passed through Zdar. The infantry in the square arrived half past ten. In the last days of the war, ten soldiers of the Red Army died or were fatally injured in Zdar.

Nice place during the day. Not much at night

The city park with the rufarmarm, the local "Ivan" and the sacrifice of the Second World War. It is surrounded by a row of residential houses on two sides. There are only lawns and trees in the park, benches around the roads.

The controversial monument to the Soviet soldier stands in the recently renovated and pleasant park. The park also includes a playground. At the memorial Ivana are also monuments to the fallen of the First and Second World War.

It's a nice park
