Mother Ukraine Monument

Kyiv, Ukraine

Mother Ukraine (Bat’kivszchyna-Maty [bɐtʲkʲiu̯ˈʃtʃɪnɐ ˈmɑtɪ]) is a monumental Soviet-era statue in Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine. The sculpture is a part of the National Museum of the History of Ukraine in the Second World War. In 2023, the Soviet heraldry was removed from the monument's shield and replaced with Ukraine's coat of arms, the tryzub, in response to the Russo-Ukrainian War.
