Answer 1

"Potyomkinskaya Lestnitsa (Potemkin Staircase) - The city's Eiffel Tower, this is the site of the most dramatic and memorable scene in the 1925 film Potemkin, and Odessa's most visited and best-known landmark. Built between 1837 amd 1841 and originally designed to be the main gateway to the city, the Potemkin Staircase is an architectural masterpiece, a long and wide stone stairway that consists of 192 steps that sharply descend from a row of places down to the harbor."

Answer 2

The dimensions are noted as over 100 meters long and 50 meters wide and can accomodate 10,000 people in the following travel site:

But the only source with an actual number of stairs reveals 192.


...the view from above shows only stair-wells, while, looking from below, one can see only stairs. All 192.
