The monument is situated in the residential area "Trakia" on the place where the barracks of the Ninth Plovdiv Infantry Regiment were located some time ago. It is the work of the sculptor Nikolay Savov.
Khan Krum is depicted in full length, with full combat gear and armor, with a drawn sword in his hand on a horse. The monument is over 10 meters high, for the casting of the figure were donated 3 tons of bronze from KCM. A capsule with a special message to future generations is built into the pedestal, which should be read on July 26, 2111 - then marks the 1300th anniversary of the victory of Khan Krum at the Varbishki Pass.
