Monument to Soviet Tank Crews

The Monument to Soviet Tank Crews (Czech: ''Památník sovětských tankistů'') was a World War II memorial located in Prague.〔Government of the Czech Republic, “(Entropa: Stereotypes are Barriers to be Demolished )”, 12 January 2009.〕 It is also known as the Pink Tank because it was controversially painted pink, first as a prank by installation artist David Černý, and a second time by members of parliament in protest of his arrest.
The original location of the monument was .
== The monument ==

The monument was erected in Štefánik square in the Smíchov district, and was dedicated on July 29, 1945, by Soviet General Ivan Konev and top municipal representatives. The tank rested on a massive five-metre stone pedestal, its barrel pointing menacingly westward. It was built to commemorate the arrival of Konev's First Ukrainian Front, namely the Fourth Tank Brigade led by Lelyushenko, on May 9, 1945, effectively liberating Czechoslovakia from German occupation. It was originally intended to represent Lt I.G. Goncharenko's T-34-85 medium tank of the 63rd Tank Brigade, the very first tank to enter Prague. However, the actual monument was an IS-2m heavy tank instead of a T-34, and its turret was mis-labelled ''23''; Goncharenko's tank had borne the tactical marking ''I-24''.〔Zaloga 1996, pp 42–43, pl A2.〕〔http://forum.virtualfighters.cz/viewtopic.php?t=1521〕
Following the communist coup of 1948, the monument was elevated to the status of National Cultural Monument, commemorating the liberation of Prague by the Red Army, and the square was renamed Soviet Tank Square.
