Borisoglebsk Side
Marshal Fyodor Tolbukhin Monument
The main square in the Borisoglebsk Side of Tutaev is Yubileynaya Ploschad (Jubilee Square). In the centre of the square is a bust of Marshal Fyodor Tolbukhin who was a respected Soviet military commander during the Second World War who was born in the Yaroslavl Governorate. Tolbukhin led the Soviet invasion of the Balkans and occupied Bulgaria, before going on to liberate much of Serbia. This bust of him in fact originally stood in Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria. It was taken down in the 1990s and then brought to Tutaev. Behind Tolbukhin are some plaques bearing the names of Soviet war heroes.
