Located in Ljubno ob Savinji in Slovenia, this is
project was carried out along the banks
of the Savinja.
Dedicated to General
Maister that in the night of 23 November 1918, with Slovene volunteer forces of
4000 soldiers and 200 officers, seized control of the city of Maribor
and the surrounding region of Lower Styria.
The park was
planned as an abstract three-dimensional space, where the paths lead around
geometrically cut grass crests.
It is an
abstract representation of the crest of the northern border, for which
Maister’s soldiers fought.
The crest next
to the road is truncated and ends with a supporting wall, which serves as a
part of the memorial symbol, for onit there is a line of metal sticks, bearing
the names of the soldiers for the northern border.
The symbolic
composition ends with an abstract life-size bronze figure of a horseman.
