Monumento ao 25 Abril, Historic obelisk in Avenidas Novas, Portugal.

The April 25th Monument features marble construction and stands prominently in São Sebastião da Pedreira, near Parque Eduardo VII in Lisbon.

The monument, inaugurated in 1997, commemorates the Carnation Revolution of April 25, 1974, which ended five decades of dictatorship in Portugal.

Portuguese artist João Cutileiro designed this memorial to represent the transition from authoritarian rule to democratic governance through artistic expression.

Visitors can reach the monument using public transportation, with several bus and metro stops within walking distance of the memorial site.

The monument incorporates musical notes from Grândola Vila Morena song and displays white carnation symbols, representing the peaceful revolution.
