The monument was created by sculptor Sergey Isakov.
It marks the 850th anniversary of the founding of Vladimir, though the commemoration ceremony took place in 2007.
Saint Feodor, depicted alongside Prince Vladimir, was sent by the Patriarch of Constantinople to organize the local church administration in the 10th century.
The monument is cast in bronze, while the base consists of granite.
The location was chosen specifically for its historical view of the Klyazma River, which was a vital transport artery for the principality.
The Monument to Prince Vladimir and Saint Feodor is a bronze sculpture located on the high bank of the Klyazma River in Vladimir. Erected in 2007, it commemorates the founder of the city, Vladimir the Great, and the first Bishop of the Rostov-Suzdal diocese, Feodor. The monument features the two figures standing together, oriented toward the river valley. The statue stands at a height of approximately 3.7 meters and is set upon a high pedestal. It serves as a visual marker for the historical significance of the Vladimir region in the context of Russian Orthodoxy and statehood. The site is situated within the Pushkin Park area, overlooking the river landscape.
From the park pathway directly in front of the monument, looking toward the statue with the river valley visible in the background.
