Overview
This cherished landmark honors Dr. Zemach Shabad, a benevolent Jewish doctor and political activist known for his kindness. The endearing sculpture of the doctor with a little girl is celebrated for its touching backstory, as Shabad was the real-life inspiration for the children's book character "Doctor Aibolit." Located in a quiet square within the former Jewish ghetto, the monument holds deep historical significance.
