Památník obětem střelby ve Fakultní nemocnici Ostrava, Memorial monument in Poruba, Czech Republic

The Memorial to the Victims of the Shooting at the Faculty Hospital in Ostrava, by Lukáš Dvorský, is a bronze sculpture in the form of a deformed square surface set on a low pedestal in a small park on 17. listopadu street, in front of the hospital entrance in Ostrava-Poruba. It evokes an astronomical black hole, a vanished, dark, dead sun, in contrast to the neighbouring light granite Sun by Vladislav Gajda. The cast was made at the Ještědský bronz foundry near Liberec.

The memorial was erected to commemorate the tragic events of December 10, 2019, when seven people lost their lives at the University Hospital Ostrava. It emerged as a response to this tragedy and now stands in a place of daily activity.

The memorial stands beside a granite Sun sculpture by Vladislav Gajda, creating an intentional contrast between darkness and light. This visual pairing invites visitors to reflect on how hope and sorrow coexist in shared spaces.

The memorial stands outdoors on 17. listopadu street, directly in front of the Faculty Hospital Ostrava entrance in Ostrava-Poruba, in a small park beside Vladislav Gajda's granite Sun. It is a low, horizontal deformed square on a low pedestal, so it is seen best by walking around it rather than looking down from above.

The memorial is a deformed square surface set on a low pedestal in a small park by the hospital entrance, deliberately horizontal and dark, while Vladislav Gajda's older Sun sculpture beside it rises vertically in light granite. The bronze cast was made at the Ještědský bronz foundry near Liberec.
