Situated in the centre of a small roundabout on the intersection of Ulitsa Mira, Ulitsa Fridrikha Engelsa and Ulitsa Feoktistov is an unusual monument in the form of a structure reminiscent of chromosomes surrounded by a ribbon inscribed with the words "Glory to Soviet Science". The base of the monument depicts various scientific instruments such as a microscope, a chemical retort, the bowl of Hygenia entwined with a snake and of course the hammer and sickle for good measure.
