Memento Park - graveyard for old Soviet statues in Budapest.
This is the Republic of Councils Monument at Memento Park on the outskirts of Budapest.

Memento Park is an open-air musuem featuring many statues from the communist period (1949-1989), which were removed from their orginal locations after the fall of communism. This is a rather unique concept within Europe, as the communist statues in many other countries were destroyed following the collapse of the Soviet Union.

To get here, take public transport from Budapest-Kelenföld (Buses #101 or #150), or the Memento Park direct bus transfer from Deák Ferenc tér in central Pest.
