Trg zmage je eden izmed osrednjih in najbolj prepoznavnih delov Murske Sobote.
Na njem stoji 17m velik Spomenik zmage. Načrt za spomenik je izdelal sovjetski vojni inženir Arončik, kipa vojakov pa kiparja Boris in Zdenko Kalin.
Slovesno odprtje Spomenika zmage je v Murski Soboti potekalo 12. avgusta leta 1945 je na Trgu zmage. Pobudo za postavitev spomenika je dala Sovjetska zveza in je bil prvotno mišljen kot grobnica za 521 sovjetskih vojakov, ki so padli na fronti ob Muri, ker pa se meščani niso preveč navdušili nad idejo o grobnici v središču mesta, so odločili, da bodo padle vojake pokopali v skupni grobnici na pokopališču, spomenik pa bo posvečen njihovemu junaškemu boju. Kot zanimivost pa lahko omenim, da so najprej nameravali zgraditi ta spomenik večji od cerkve, ampak jim zaradi pomanjkanja materiala le to ni uspelo.

Trg zmage (translated: Victory Square) is one of the main and most recognizable parts of Murska Sobota.
On it stands a 17m high Spomenik zmage (translated: Victory Monument). The monument was made by the Soviet war engineer Arončik and statues of soldiers were made by sculptors Boris and Zdenko Kalin.
Inauguration of Victory Monument in Murska Sobota was on 12 August 1945 at the Victory Square. The monument was originally meant as a tomb for 521 Soviet soldiers who fell at the front along the Mura river, but the citizens were against the idea of the tomb in the center are chosen to fallen soldiers buried in the common tomb in the cemetery, a monument will be dedicated to their heroic struggle. As a curiosity I can mention that the first intention was to build this monument bigger than the church, but they failed because ran out of material.
