Abstract: The article presents an object of public area, at the same a national cultural monument and a cemetery – the Slavín monument. The author primarily analyzes period documents and thus presents the monument’s historical-artistic and ideological (propagandist) side. Subsequently, the author works with the monument from the point of view of historical memory, forgetting and bending of history. In contrast, the author identifies the most significant shortcomings of the monument. In the last part of the article, the author analyzes the legal regulation of the monument and offers options that would anchor Slavín as an urban dominant in the 21st century, both ideologically and artistically.
