Mausoleo di Andrej Hlinka, Modernist mausoleum in Ruzomberok, Slovakia.

The white stone mausoleum features a monumental staircase leading to the main entrance and contains a stone sarcophagus with a statue by Frano Stefunko.

The structure was transformed from a World War I memorial into a mausoleum in 1939, housing Andrej Hlinka's remains until their removal in 1945.

The building represents a significant memorial to Andrej Hlinka, a Slovak priest and politician who championed national rights in the early 20th century.

Located near Saint Andrew's Church, the mausoleum maintains regular visiting hours and includes informational displays about Hlinka's life and achievements.

The glass case that once contained Hlinka's embalmed body, damaged by a bullet, was returned to the mausoleum in 2003 without the remains.
