Beschrijving voorzijde Above is the semicircular legend УКРАЇНА (Ukraine), under which are Ukraine’s small coat of arms and the medal’s issue year – 2023 (vertical, against the backdrop of a map); in the center, against a smooth background, is the legend МІСТО/ВОЛНОВАХА/ГЕРОЇВ (city/Volnovakha/heroes); in the word Volnovakha, the Ukrainian letter “н” is replaced with a fragment of railway tracks, which reach Ukraine’s small coat of arms and stands for the city’s desire to return home, to Ukraine; there are also stylized fragments of maps of Donetsk (above) and Mariupol (below); beneath, to the right is the mint mark of the NBU’s Banknote Printing and Minting Works.

Beschrijving keerzijde There is the following stylized composition: an image of a Ukrainian soldier (to the left) and stylized elements of Volnovakha’s coat of arms: against the backdrop of a curved line (symbolizing Volnovakha’s location in one of the highest places of the Azov Upland) and a wavy line with fountains (standing for the Volnovakha River, the name of which is derived from the large number of springs in the area), are a flying bird and its reflection on a smooth background, symbolizing people’s confidence that the city will be liberated.
