Legacy
This event is generally regarded as "class-motivated" by the historians similarly to other workers' movements of Russia at the time.
To commemorate the event, the historic defensive wall of the Arsenal factory bearing the traces of shelling was preserved by Soviet authorities on the city's Moscow Street (near the Arsenalna metro station). The nearby street named to the event during the Soviet times carried this name (January Uprising Street) until 2007.
The uprising is the subject of a classic film entitled Arsenal (1928) by Ukrainian director Alexander Dovzhenko.
