EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Memorial Garden of Tsar Osvoboditel II in Pleven, Bulgaria, circa 1904. The garden and memorial house were established between 1904 and 1907, as a tribute to the Russian Emperor Liberator, Tsar Alexander II, who played a crucial role in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878 and the subsequent liberation of Bulgaria from Ottoman rule. The Memorial House, nestled within the lush greenery of the park, serves as a museum, preserving the history of the events that led to Bulgaria's independence. The tranquil park, with its meticulously manicured lawns and vibrant flora, provides a serene backdrop to the memorial. The grounds of the Memorial Garden are adorned with Russian batteries and artillery pieces, remnants of the military might that played a pivotal role in the war. Sculptures of Russian and Romanian military commanders, including General Gurko and General Averescu, stand proudly amidst the greenery, paying homage to their leadership and valor. The Memorial Garden of Tsar Osvoboditel II in Pleven is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Bulgaria's past. It stands as a reminder of the sacrifices made during the Russo-Turkish War and the importance of unity and perseverance in the face of adversity. The garden continues to be a popular tourist destination and a source of national pride for the people of Bulgaria.
