Revolutionsdenkmal, Memorial monument in Friedrichsfelde, Germany.
The Revolutionsdenkmal features rectangular blocks spanning 12 meters in length, 4 meters in width, and 6 meters in height, constructed with Oldenburg-format clinker bricks.
Built in 1926 to commemorate Karl Liebknecht, Rosa Luxemburg, and other victims of the January 1919 struggles, the monument was destroyed by the Nazi regime in 1935.
The monument, designed by architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, incorporated geometric shapes and Soviet symbols, reflecting the political movements of early 20th century Germany.
Located in the Zentralfriedhof Friedrichsfelde cemetery within Berlin's Lichtenberg district, the memorial site includes informational plaques explaining its historical significance.
The original monument's surface featured protruding and receding cubes that created an interplay of movement and stability in its architectural design.
