Мати-Батьківщина - "Mother-Fatherland" UeArtemis (talk) 14:30, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
According to Skyscraperpage.com this is 108 m and has a observation deck at 92 m. 85.217.38.115 (talk) 20:27, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It seems that the English and the Russian versions of this article don't fully correspond with each other. The following sentence is now written in the English version: "Built by Yevgeny Vuchetich, the titanium[1] statue stands 62 meters tall upon the museum building with the overall structure measuring 102 m and weighing 560 tons." In the Russian version:『Планировалось, что монумент будет покрыт сусальным золотом, однако от этой идеи отказались. Металлический каркас сделан из нержавеющей стали, выплавленной в Запорожье. Стальную обшивку сварили специалисты Института электросварки имени Патона из листов размером 50х50 см толщиной 1,5 мм. Суммарная длина швов составила около 30 км. Скульптура таких размеров была сделана впервые в СССР. Она изготовлена на Киевском заводе имени Парижской Коммуны с учетом рекомендаций института электросварки имени Е. О. Патона по сварке элементов из нержавеющей стали отдельными блоками-секциями весом 25—30 т.』So what material is correct "stainless steel" or "titanium"?

According to the official site at http://www.warmuseum.kiev.ua/eng/skulp.shtml the material is stainless steel. Smallchanges (talk) 19:28, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Length of the sword. The article maintains that the sword was cut off because it had been built higher than the tip of the Lavra's belfry. The given reference does not contain this information. As far as I know the story regarding the sword length is an urban legend, which I personally have heard first time ~30 years ago, during my childhood. That time the legend was told in a way that the length had been changed during the construction, because of some discussion between the church representatives and the city's administration. Nevertheless these stories are all legends; at least I have never seen any credible confirmation of them. According to the official version the height of the statue was harmonized with the highest edifices around, this is why the height of the Lavra's belfry is close, or actually indeed a bit higher than the height of the statue.
