National Flag Memorial
National Flag Memorial, National historical monument in Rosario, Argentina
The National Flag Memorial stands 70 meters tall near the Paraná River, featuring a tower, civic courtyard, and triumphal propylaeum made of travertine marble.
Manuel Belgrano first raised the Argentine flag in 1812 at the location where the memorial now stands, leading to its construction between 1943 and 1957.
The Gallery of Honor displays flags from nations across the Americas, representing the solidarity and connections between independent states in the Western Hemisphere.
Visitors can access the monument through Pasaje Juramento, starting at Buenos Aires Street between the municipal building and the Cathedral near Plaza 25 de Mayo.
The memorial structure represents a ship navigating through eternal waters, with the tower housing Manuel Belgrano's crypt at its foundation.
