If you have information on when the memorials were built, etc., you could go ahead and add those to a new section about them.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 13:32, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but my english isn't so good. The monument was built in 1948 on the funds of the Uzbek people (en:Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic). On the monument is metal plate with text "To our comrades sailors who died on the battleship "Petropavlovsk" on September 23, 1941 in battles for the city of Lenin. Eternal glory to the heroes who fell in battle with the enemy and gave his life for the freedom and happiness of our people." To the left of the obelisk there is a concrete wall, on which there are tablets with the names of the deceased and with memorable inscriptions "Eternal glory to the heroes who died on the battleship "Marat" during the Great Patriotic War 1941 - 1945" and "Eternal glory to shipbuilders of the Baltic plant, who died on the battleship "Marat" on September 23, 1941". On the memorial wall, 19 shipbuilders and 356 sailors were immortalized, 25 of them were killed on September 16.
