The author surveys currently known results about the subgroup structure of the Fischer-Griess Monster \(M\) which is the biggest and perhaps the most interesting of the sporadic simple groups. In the sections 1-7 of the paper, the following themes are discussed: \(p\)-local subgroups, monstralizers (the centralizers of subgroups of \(M\)), orbits on transpositions (orbit structure of the subgroup \(2^{1+24}\cdot Co_1\) on elements of the conjugacy class \(2A\) of \(M\)), \(A_5\)'s and associated groups, \((2,3,7)\)-subgroups, groups of type \(L_2(q)\), matrices in the Monster (matrix generators of subgroups \(O^+_8(3)\wr 2\) and \(3\cdot{^2E_6(2)}\) of the Bimonster \(M\wr 2\)). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0892.00032].
