The NS monument was a Norwegian 9 meters tall obelisk made from quartzite shale from Vågå. It was erected at Stiklestad in Nord-Trøndelag county in 1944 and inaugurated by collaborationist Minister-President Vidkun Quisling. The NS monument took the place of the Olav's monument that was erected in 1807 in remembrance of Olav Haraldsson, who later became King Olaf II of Norway and received the epithet "Olaf the Holy." The Olav's monument was consequently placed in storage at Verdalsøra. The monument was hewed by sculptor Wilhelm Rasmussen (1879–1965) and was designed with a central obelisk, surrounded by a staircase consisting of 39 steps and round wall. The installation carried the solar cross logo of the Nazi Nasjonal Samling (NS), images with scenes from the battle of Stiklestad in nationalistic viking style and stanzas from Per Sivle's poem "Tord Foleson": :::: ''«Mannen kan siga'' :::: ''Men merket det må'' :::: ''I Norig si jord'' :::: ''Som på Stiklestad stå»'' In English :::: ''"The man can say'' :::: ''But the mark it must'' :::: ''In Norwegian soil'' :::: ''As at Stiklestad stand"'' The NS monument was torn down and buried and the Olav's monument returned immediately following World War II. In December 2007 Stiklestad National Culture Centre argued that the monument ought to be made visible as a monument to this part of the war history. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「NS monument (Norway)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
