      • The monument was unveiled on 27 October 1968, for the 50th anniversary of the Komsomol.
      • The pedestal was cut from a 250-tonne granite monolith from a quarry on the Karelian Isthmus.
      • A capsule with a letter to the Komsomol members of 2018 is sealed into the base.
      • Until 1958 Komsomolskaya Square was called Round Square: it is the only square in Petersburg shaped as a perfect circle.
