Monument de l'Unité, National monument at Unity Palace entrance, Yaoundé, Cameroon
The Unity Monument features ten columns supporting a circular beam with ten golden lions, crowned by a central pillar reaching 13 meters high.
The Unity Monument was unveiled in August 2021 after ten months of construction, marking a new landmark in the capital city of Cameroon.
Each of the ten lions mounted on the circular structure represents one region of Cameroon, emphasizing national cohesion through architectural symbolism.
The monument includes an automatic fountain system, color-changing lights, and water jets surrounding the central structure with a 12-meter diameter base.
The central pillar supports a rotating golden star, while the ground features a star-shaped tiling pattern with illuminated water features.
