From this place, the Princess Yaroslavna saw off her husband, Prince Igor, on a campaign, here she received the sad news of the defeat of the army and the capture of the prince.
Having risen on the city wall, Yaroslavna cried, turning to the river: "Bring my tears to the sea ..." So the sculptor portrayed her: raising her hands to heaven.
The image of Yaroslavna became a symbol of peace, family bonds and love.
