Bradlo, Mountain summit in Brezová pod Bradlom, Slovakia

The limestone peak of Bradlo rises to 543 meters above sea level, marking the highest point of the Myjavská pahorkatina region in western Slovakia.

The Bradlo Memorial, constructed between 1927 and 1928, features four 12.5-meter obelisks commemorating Milan Rastislav Štefánik and his companions who died in a 1919 aircraft incident.

The mountain serves as the endpoint of Štefánik Trail and contains a monumental tomb structure representing Slovak national independence and freedom through architectural elements.

Visitors can reach the memorial via a 3.5-kilometer paved road from Brezová pod Bradlom, with designated parking areas near the monument structure.

The memorial's lower terrace measures 93 by 62 meters and includes two staircases ending in ceremonial chambers, creating a symmetrical architectural composition.
