Monument of Zalongo, Monumental sculpture at Mount Zalongo, Epirus, Greece.

The Monument of Zalongo is a sculpture by George Zongolopoulos on the plateau of Mount Zalongo, near Kamarina in Preveza. It stands on a stone base with four oversized abstract figures of Souliote women, built of reinforced concrete clad in about 4,300 whitish limestone blocks of 50x25x20 cm. It measures 18 m long and 13 m high.

The monument was built between 1954 and 1960 to commemorate the women of Souli, who in 1803 chose to leap from the cliff rather than surrender to occupation. This event became central to the region's memory of freedom and resistance.

The six limestone figures represent the choices and emotions of Greek women facing an impossible situation. Their linked hands show solidarity and collective determination.

The climb to the monument follows a cobbled lane of 410 steps from Saint Dimitrios Monastery, at 590 metres altitude, up to the plateau at 774 metres. Allow about twenty minutes for the ascent and ten to fifteen minutes for the descent. The monument stands 200 metres from the Taxiarchis Michael monastery and can be seen with binoculars from Preveza, 25 kilometres away.

The monument's east base carries a marble inscription naming sculptor George Zongolopoulos, architect Patroklos Karantinos and technician Eleftherios Giftopoulos. Zongolopoulos and his wife Eleni spent three to four months each year on the site, reaching it in military vehicles.
