Monuments and memorials

Monuments and memorials are structures or symbols created to honor, remember, or celebrate specific people, events, or ideas. Monuments often serve as landmarks and sources of pride, such as statues or historical buildings. Memorials specifically aim to honor those who have passed away or to mark significant tragedies, providing a space for reflection and remembrance. Both serve to preserve history, cultural values, and collective memory, enabling communities to connect with their past and recognize important contributions or sacrifices.
