Friend of the great writer A. Pushkin, the Russian romantic poet A.I Polejaev, participated in the 1825 “Decembrist” revolution. The monument was inaugurated for his 200th anniversary in his native city of Rousayevka.
He was an acclaimed intellectual, very much in advance for his time, where literature played a major leading role at the time. G.Pototsky received at the opening, as recognition and gift, one special patriotic song from an elderly man.
