The Sail Fountain in Novy Urengoy

The fountain, located in Friendship Park, was opened in 2005 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the city. A large number of residents came to this significant event. It is worth noting that this fountain was the first in Novy Urengoy.
The uniqueness of the composition lies in the fact that in the summer it works like a fountain, delighting the residents of the city with freshness and beauty, and in winter you can see a beautiful light show on it, because the whole structure is decorated with luminous garlands, similar to drops of water.

Memorial of Memory

The Memorial of Memory can be called one of the most significant sights of Novy Urengoy. It is located on the square of the same name in the Student district. The Memorial Square is unique because this colossal composition perpetuates the memory of three generations of our courageous warriors. This is the memory of the veterans of the Holy Great Patriotic War, this is the memory of the soldiers who died in Afghanistan, this is the memory of the guys who laid down their heads in the performance of military duty in the fighting in Chechnya.

The stele "The Arctic Circle"

Avid travelers should definitely visit the stele "Arctic Circle", because it is installed in the place where the Arctic Circle crosses the highway. The memorial sign is made in the form of a metal sphere, on the edge of which the inscription "arctic circle" is applied. This sign is not only a symbolic boundary of the Arctic circle, but also a place that people from different parts of the country strive for every year to take part in a motorcycle rally.
Getting to the stele is an adventure, because it is located 130 km north of the city of Novy Urengoy.

Commemorative sign "Methane Molecule"

The commemorative sign "Methane Molecule" was unveiled on September 6, 2020 by the CEO of Gazprom Dobycha Yamburg LLC in the presence of the head of Novy Urengoy and the Deputy Governor of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District.
The theme of the art object was not chosen by chance, because methane is the main component of natural gas, which has become a source of development and progress for Novy Urengoy.
The commemorative sign "Methane Molecule" symbolizes both a success story and a look into the future of the Russian gas industry.
