      🏛 N-209 Crew Monument at the Khrunichev Plant

      Новозаводская ул., у проходной завода имени Хруничева

      A square with memorial markers at the plant's gatehouse: to Levanevsky's crew, who vanished over the Arctic in 1937, and a bust of Mikhail Khrunichev.

      • On 12 August 1937 the DB-A aircraft numbered N-209 took off for America over the North Pole with six people aboard.
      • Contact was lost on 13 August after passing the Pole; the crew's fate is still unknown.
