The Ensemble-memorial "Small Earth" is in Novorossiysk, on the Black Sea coast of the embankment of Admiral Serebryakov. It is part of the complex of the memorial "Heroes of the Great Patriotic War and Civil War of 1941-1945". The monument in its shape resembles the front part of the warship, which pulled out at full speed from the sea to the shore. There is a monument of two pillars, one fixed in the sea, the other on land, at an altitude of 22 meters they intersect together and in a general form form something that looks like a triangular arch under a slope. On board departing into the sea, on the stone is depicted a multi-figure relief with fighters preparing to rush into the attack. On the opposite side is a sculpture made of bronze 9 meters high, half on weight without a standard pedestal, which is usually used for maintenance. Bronze sculpture represents a group of landing forces, including: a sailor, an infantryman, a girl-saninstruktor and a commander. They seem to be waiting for the moment of landing, are full of courage and determination to be in very cold water.
