Stele “Salekhard”

Near the entrance to Salekhard of the Salekhard-Nadym highway, which will connect the western part of the Yamalo-Nenets autonomous district with the network of federal roads of Russia, visitors to Salekhard are greeted by a stele of the same name. The structure that was installed in 2017 has a stone pedestal with a loop-shaped monument loop on it. The mirrored surface of the stele gives a reference to the auroras and the Polar Circle whereon the city stands, the outline of a railway semaphore resembles the "Stroyka 501" ("Construction 501"), and the stones point to the Polar Urals
