The Weeping Angel

This sculpture is a component of a memorial dedicated to Belarusian internationalist soldiers who died during the Soviet-Afghan War (1979–1989). It serves as a monument to those who did not return from the conflict.

The site is deeply rooted in local commemorative traditions, where flowers are traditionally laid at the base of the statue. The memorial also features in local wedding customs, serving as a frequent stop for young couples.

As a significant work of memorial art, the sculpture provides a space for reflection on historical events. The monument is open to the public and remains an important landmark for historical remembrance.
