The Battle of Ice Monument is dedicated to the victory of Russian troops under the command of Alexander Nevsky over German knights on the ice of Lake Peipsi in 1242. Authors: sculptor I.I. Kozlovsky, architect P.S. Butenko. The height of the monument is 29.9 meters. It is located on Sokolikha Mountain, from where a magnificent panorama of the whole city of Pskov opens.
