Description: The monument at Place des martyrs by Italian sculptor Marino Mazzacurati was initially inaugurated in 1960. It commemorates the hanging of a cross-confessional group of Lebanese Patriots who had spoken against Turkish rule by Ottoman General Jamal Pasha in 1916. It was decided to keep the traces of the Civil War as a reminder.
