One of the most recognizable memorials in Russia, if not the world, The Motherland Calls stands at an incredible 91 meters, twice as large as Christ the Redeemer, two meters shorter than The Statue of Liberty. It is located in Mamayev Kurgan in Volgograd, Russia, commemorating the Battle of Stalingrad. The Motherland Calls was designed by Yevgeny Vuchetich, a sculptor, and Nikolai Nikitin, a structural engineer. In 1967, it was declared the largest statue in the world. However, today, it is the largest statue of a woman in the world.
