In the Kyiv topography of the Modern Age there exists a "sacred axis” of the architectural landscape. It was modified during Imperial, Soviet and Ukrainian periods. In the article there are analyzed memorable locations determining "axis" specificity. Special attention is paid to the central image of the Motherland in different contexts of time and place. There is made reflection on modern memorial politics.
