Rock-register (or "granite benchmark") - outcrops of gray rocks of the Ukrainian crystalline shield about 3 billion years old. Repeatedly mentioned in the texts: J. Romm - "Travel to the Crimea" 1786, K. Storchakov and G. Rosenthal - "Address book of Kremenchug for 1875", V. Buchnevich "Kremenchug and Posad Kryukov" 1891 The flood marks of 1787, 1789, 1820, 1842, 1845, 1877, 1888, 1896, 1915, 1942 are carved on the rock. In the 50s, most of the rock was covered with construction waste and coal slag to provide an access to the nearby boat station of the Dormash plant. In 1970, according to the decision of the executive committee of the Poltava Regional Council, the "Rock-Register" object was given the status of "a monument to the nature of the city value", but all the same, snow from city streets was taken to the rock for a long time along with chemistry that was used for sprinkling and garbage, washed cars in the summer. The first bronze memorial plaque appeared only in the mid-80s, but in the 90s it was safely stolen. In 2003, the rock was cleared. In 2004, planned and began to improve the rock, but never finished. Today there is a plaque at the memo and, of course, there is a "modern rock painting".

Wonderful historical place with pleasant energy. It must be protected.

A very nice place to sit and relax while looking at historical sites and, of course, the Dnieper River, is a park nearby.
