Romantic couples and Love monuments
Love – too strong, although a short-term feeling, so people want to extend and capture it … At least in the form of monuments … Although there are many such monuments around the world, let’s get acquainted with the most interesting love monuments in Russia. And the first one is a couple at the registry office Nagatinskiy in Moscow region.
And some of the monuments hide the sad story behind them. For instance, in St. Petersburg, in the park on Butlerov Street 222, there is a monument to lovers. In the 19th century, Carl and Emilia lived here. Young people loved each other, but their parents did not allow them to marry. Desperate, they took their hands and jumped into the nearest Pond. Buried nearby, the couple still attracts attention of lovers. They bring flowers to their grave for almost a century.

Undoubtedly, Bench of Reconciliation is also a kind of monument to lovers. When a couple sit down on a bench, they even after a long quarrel will find peace. Interestingly, behind this bench are two large bronze wings. Each gets one wing, and from the side it seems that the lovers are about to fly above the ground, and they can fly only together. The bench is in the center of the capital – on the Kadashevskaya embankment near the Luzhkov Bridge leading to the Tretyakov Gallery. Authors: architect Alexander Kolesnikov and designer Georgy Nepomnyashchikh.

Alas, love is unpredictable and not always mutual. Monument to the suffering lover appeared in Barnaul. Dressed in the style of the 70-ies of the twentieth century, a dull young man is waiting for his beloved by the bench, glancing at the dial of the wristwatch. The author of it – Eduard Dobrovolsky admits that he himself often found himself in such a difficult situation. As recognized by the townspeople, they have a desire to come up, cheer, comfort this poor man… In addition, the sculpture is also called a monument to all romantics. By the way, it brings good luck in love to those who believe in sincere high feelings.
