Monument to the founders of Odessa


Postcard ID: UA-906552
Country: Ukraine

I like Odessa. I visited this city summer 2012. Sea, sun and relax were my friends :)
From Chisinau (hometown of my husband) to Odessa is 4 hours by train or bus! Although there are Moldavian and Ukrainian border (and even Transdniestrian border in case train).

This card shows the monument to Catherine the Great and her companions - José de Ribas, Franz P. de Vollan, Grigory Potemkin and Platon Zubov. The monument is located in Odessa on Catherine square. It is placed in 1900. In 1920 the monument was dismantled and and restored only in 2007.

Here is one more from amazing Ukranian stamps:
