A broad path that was built through the Park of Glory leads to the monument of Glory. It was erected in 1944 and reconstructed in 1962 - 1964. On the monuments girdling the area, the names of formations of the Army and the Navy which took part in the liberation of the city, were carved. Near the monument there is the Eternal Fire which was kindled in 1970 in the day of 25th anniversary of the Victory.

The diorame 'The assault of Sapun-mount on the 7th of May,1944' revives the heroic events of those days.
