5x expanded by Викидим (talk). Self-nominated at 21:59, 17 September 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Monument of the Eponymous Heroes; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

hook is interesting and supported by source and the article has been sufficiently expanded to qualify for DYK. Just as a note, the wording in the lead is a bit awkward with the parentheticals referring to the infobox map, but that is not a DYK problem.
