Summary
| Description |
English: The Memorial consists of two inseparable parts: sculptural-architectural work and living planting. The 4.6 m high sculpture itself is inspired by the Gothic Gate (Slovak: Gotická brána), the most beautiful natural formation of the Súľov Rocks (Slovak: Súľovské skaly), a mountain massif near Žilina. The Memorial is based on the Gothic Gate not only in shape but also in material. The Súľov Rocks massif is made of a Súľov conglomerate, which is very similar to a concrete mixture. The green roof on the crown of the Memorial finds its species in the rocky vegetation. The green roof as a tool of contemporary landscape architecture is gaining more and more popularity in the design of buildings. In addition to its aesthetic function, it is an element that is perfectly connected with the surrounding landscape and, last but not least, this green infrastructure retains water in the landscape and is a habitat for many species of animals. |
