Légende
Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky - a monument to the Danish traveler in the service of the Tsarist Navy, Vitus Jonassen ("Ivan Ivanovich") Bering, the founder of this town, who died near Kamchatka on December 19, 1741 (1879-1883). The monument has the form of a column with a smooth shaft with an imperceptible entasis and a styleless capital with a finger ornament supporting a double plinth on which a ball is placed. The base of the monument is a pedestal. The monument is surrounded by a decorative fence (cast iron). The monument has not survived, but received a successor in a different sculptural form, which, however, does not refer to the one visible in the photo and has a different location. On the right, a fragment of the facade of the church, horizontally boarded "in an overlapping manner" is visible - in the distance, the building rectory.
