  • 4/5 Denitsa G. 4 years ago on Google
    An impressive memorial, dedicated to the generations which lived during three important periods of the Bulgarian history--the April uprising of 1876, the turmoil of 1944, and the May revolution of 1968. There are beautiful stone sculptures in the communist fashion, recreating those events, as well as a tall bell tower and an empty sarcophagus you can go down to. The memorial offers a breathtaking view of the town of Perushtitsa and the fields and mountains around. There's a road that goes up to the monument, but unfortunately the monument itself is not wheelchair accessible and there are no toilets. On the plus side, there's a nice wooden shed for enjoying a break or a snack.

    Another must see communist landmark in Bulgaria. The second best country for communist monuments after Russia. The road and sight are not well maintained in winter. I had to leave the car 1km down the road.

  • 5/5 Ани οΏ½. 5 years ago on Google
    . monument was built in 1976 for the 100-years anniversary of the April uprising. It is dedicated to the 3 uprisings: 1876 - The April Uprising - the first try of the Bulgarians to be free from the Ottoman yoke (surpressed, a thousands of people killed); 1923 - The September uprising - armed revolt of the Bulgarian Communist Party to change the government in Bulgaria. Unsuccessfull, 840 people killed. 1944 - The September Revolution, that overthrew the government and led the country on the way of Socialism. In the right part of the monument you can see 3 terraces, each one has a wall, covered in stone reliefs, dedicated to each of the revolts. The monument itself is unique. The author tries to make it as close as possible to Perushtitsa. The outside part, covered not in concrete, as usu, but in round stones, reminds of a medieval citadel. The firm, and the bell tower help the idea. The inside is covered in red bricks, reminding of the famous medieval Red church, found nearby town. The best thing is that the Municipality took the right from the government to run the place and is starting renovations.

    There is a beautiful panoramic view. I guess it will be awesome to watch the sunset by there. You can reach the Monument by a car or by walking up the steps starting from the city. There is a free parking just next to the monument where you can leave your car and take a walk around.

    What LOW LIFE Trash did the Graffiti down there? One Spray is dated 06.04.22 - put a camera on and put those Losers directly into jail where they can learn how to create art by not chaos. I hope they’ll get their punishment!!! Embarrassing garbage everywhere!! Bulgarias nature is SO beautiful but the Bulgarians are destroying their green and white colors on their flag! SAD!!

    Nice view of the city and perfect place for a picnic. Monument is nice, but they locked off the bottom part, which is a shame. The road up there could use a little maintenance, but is passable without problems.
