About the place
The monument was opened in 2009 and is dedicated to the memory of the Mennonites who became victims of Stalin's repressions and religious oppression in the 1930s.
The monument consists of three granite slabs with silhouettes of a man, a woman, and two children. According to the author's idea, Canadian Mennonite Paul Epp, the monument represents a bookshelf with photographs from which the heroes were torn out.
The monument is a modern object that is part of the historical ensemble of the Mennonite colony of Rosenthal.
The Mennonites had a huge influence on the architecture and cultural development of the city of Zaporizhzhia. Most of the buildings that have survived to this day are unique monuments of history and architecture.
