The memorial complex is spatially oriented towards Berlin!

A square with an Eternal Flame has been formed for holding mass events, collective and individual visits. Counter-reliefs of soldiers aiming at the enemy are illuminated from below by built-in spotlights. The square is visually and acoustically isolated from the architecture of Expoforum and St. Petersburg Highway, allowing you to "immerse yourself" in the events of the Battle of Leningrad.

Speakers are built into the walls to play music appropriate to the nature of the event. From the side of Petersburg highway, access to the inside of the memorial is organized through angular gaps between the walls forming the square. The central gap is the "sword of retribution," directed towards Berlin as the main target and direction of the strike

From the side of Petersburg Highway, access to the interior of the memorial is organized through angled gaps between the walls forming the square. The third, central gap, "Sword of Retribution" gap is directed towards Berlin as the main target and direction of the attack.

The entrances to the exhibition (non-capital) pavilion are located from the square, which houses an indoor exhibition, cafes, toilets, and spaces for storing podia, stands for various exhibitions and events dedicated to the events of World War II (exhibits of military sculptures and installations). The interior of the square opens towards the city centre.

The memorial is made of architectural concrete with traces of timbering made from planks - this was how defense dugouts were built during the period of military operations. A grassy park has been planted around the monument.

The object is large-scale and holds its surroundings with its mass, it is visually impenetrable and its fifth facade (square) faces the sky, as if inviting passengers flying in planes to gaze at it...
