Citadella Budapest
The Citadella stands on Gellert Hill on the Buda side and was placed for the soldiers who died in world war 2. The statue is seen almost from every part of the city. In her hands she holds a palm leaf. Originally she was holding a propeller which was dedicated to the son of Miklós Horthy who died in a test flight when world war 2 stated. The propeller got replaced because Miklós Horthy had good contacts to Hitler and they did not want to remind of him. At August 20th (the national holiday) the fireworks is started at the Citadella.
