      • The monument was unveiled on 6 November 1873; the sculptor was Ivan Schröder and the architect Ippolit Monighetti.
      • The site was chosen opposite the Naval Cadet Corps, where Krusenstern studied and was later director.
      • In the 1970s the bronze dirk was stolen from the monument; the original was found and returned in 1999.
      • The inscription on the pedestal reads: “To the first Russian circumnavigator, Admiral Ivan Fyodorovich Krusenstern”.
