Monument to the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War, Military monument in Pyongyang, North Korea.

The Monument to the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War is a large complex featuring bronze sculptures of soldiers from different military branches arranged around a central statue symbolizing victory. The site includes an adjacent museum with military artifacts and detailed exhibits related to the conflict.

The structure was built in 1993 to commemorate 40 years after the end of a major conflict known here as the Fatherland Liberation War. Its creation marked a moment when this military event became a focus for national memory and reflection.

The sections of this monument tell stories about specific moments that hold meaning for the people who built it. Walking through each area, visitors can observe how different military events are portrayed in sculpture and stone.

Visitors can explore both the outdoor complex and the adjacent museum on foot at their own pace. It is helpful to allow plenty of time to walk through all the different areas and viewing points.

The complex incorporates ten separate sculptural groups that present different aspects of the conflict, ranging from naval battles to guerrilla operations. This varied presentation offers a broad look at different types of military actions.
