Technion Obelisk, Modern obelisk at Technion Institute campus, Israel.
The white obelisk structure, designed by Santiago Calatrava, stands tall against the Haifa sky at the Technion Institute of Technology campus.
The obelisk, inaugurated in 2009, marks a period of architectural advancement at the Technion Institute, which was established in 1912 as Israel's first university.
The monument represents the intersection of art and science at the Technion campus, where students from multiple backgrounds gather for academic pursuits.
Visitors can access the obelisk during regular campus hours and combine their visit with tours of the Technion Institute's research facilities.
The structure incorporates Calatrava's engineering principles with artistic elements, creating vertical lines that catch sunlight throughout different times of day.
