26 Commissars Memorial : ウィキペディア英語版 | 26 Commissars Memorial The 26 Commissars Memorial was a Soviet-era monument located in Baku, Azerbaijan, that paid tribute to the 26 Baku Commissars from the Baku commune. The commune was overthrown in 1918 and the commissars later executed near Krasnovodsk (now Türkmenbaşy). The monument was designed by Alesker Huseynov, who went on to become a prominent politician in Azerbaijan. The remains of the Commissars were buried at the site of the memorial. ==Description== The centre of this large square was a dramatic monument with a man coming out of the ground holding what was previously an "eternal flame" (later extinguished).〔(New York Times, September 9, 1997. The Fallen Commissars of 1918, Now Fallen Idols )〕 Hovering above him was a large stone circle that was once inscribed with the names of the slain commissars. All the wording on the monument was removed in the years after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, making the whole monument much more ambiguous. The square has a quiet garden and is the location of the Turkish embassy and of the Akhundov National Library, Azerbaijan's main book repository.
