History
In 1958, a monument was erected in Koktebel at the site of the death of the Red Navy. In 1967, it was destroyed by a storm. In 1975, on the 30th anniversary of Victory Day in Koktebel (at that time - Glider) a new monument was unveiled. The author of the project was the Theodosian sculptor Boris Lets. The monument was erected in front of the building of the Blue Bay boarding house, not far from the place where the dead sailors were buried on the eve of 1942.
