The 4.70 m high monument has been entirely donated by the Russian side. It is to commemorate the princess Sophie Auguste Friederike von Anhalt-Zerbst, who lived here from 1742-1744.

There are few historical figures who have been given the nickname "the Great" or "the Great." Historians and Russians themselves call this period the "Golden Age" in Russian history.

The reign of Catherine II was not only characterized by favoritism at court, the Russo-Turkish War, and the Partitions of Poland, but also by numerous administrative, educational, economic, and political reforms. The city of Zerbst continually draws new opportunities and impetus from this aspect of her government's activities to make Zerbst/Anhalt's tourist offerings more attractive.
