Unusual Soviet Monument
Located on the side of the street next to Kutaisi City Hall, the Glory to Labour Monument is an interesting example of Soviet art. It was completed around 1980-1 designed by architects Vakhtang Davitaya and Shota Bostanashvili, with sculptures by E. Amashukeli and I. Bastanashvili. The monument is made of bronze and marble. As the name suggests, it is dedicated to the workers of Georgia reflecting the Soviet-era emphasis on the importance of the working class. It is a popular tourist stop for the visitors who are interested in Soviet-era architecture and design.
