The purpose of monuments is to commemorate and preserve the memory of dear events and people. When planning a monument, you need to know the story behind the person / event in whose honor a monument is erected. Each story is special and unusual, as is the monument that was intended to commemorate him. For this purpose, great professionalism and sensitivity is required, as this is a monument that will remain forever.
