Memento Park - Statue Park
Loading...
Uploaded by BudapestTourism on Apr 2, 2009
A short bus ride from downtown Budapest will take the visitor to a unique museum or, if you like to a whole different world. By displaying mementoes of the communist era, this unparalleled theme park is a powerful reminder of the fall of tyranny. This stunning historical sight presents a collection of public statues and memorials that were removed from the streets of Budapest after the collapse of socialism in 1989-90. Providing a glimpse behind the iron curtain, the Park is one of the most spectacular sights of Budapest. The gigantic and symbolic pieces of art displayed in the Statue Park are powerful reminders of dictatorship. Facing the Statue Park is newly built Stalins Tribune, recalling the mythical longing for freedom. Among the statues displayed are allegorical monuments of Hungarian-Soviet Friendship and Liberation, as well as statues of famous personalities from the labour movement, soldiers of the Red Army and other gigantic pieces: Lenin, Marx, Engels, Dimitrov, Ostapenko, Béla Kun and other heroes of the communist world.
