Memento Park is an open air museum in Budapest, dedicated to monumental statues from Hungary's Communist period (1949-1989). There are statues of Lenin, Marx, and Engels, and several Hungarian Communist leaders. The park was designed by Hungarian architect, Ákos Eleőd, who won the competition announced by the Budapest General Assembly (Fővárosi Közgyűlés) in 1991. Thus the architect: "This park is about dictatorship. about, described, built, this park is about democracy. After all, only democracy is able to give the opportunity to let us think freely about dictatorship. "
After the fall of the Communist regime in Hungary in 1989, many of the Communist statues and monuments were immediately removed. These are the basis for the current collection of statues in the park. On June 29, 1993, the second anniversary of the withdrawal of the Soviet troops from Hungarian territory, the park celebrated a grand opening as a public outdoor museum.
2006 marked a new chapter in the history of Memento Park. Stock photo: A statue of a soldier with a bronze statue of a soldier. This is not an accurate copy of the original but an artistic recreation by Ákos Eleőd.
In 2007 a new exhibition hall and a small movie theater were opened in Memento Park. The photo exhibition called "Stalin's Boots" in the exhibition hall takes the viewer through the history of the 1956 revolution, of the political changes of 1989-1990 and of Memento Park, with both English and Hungarian captions. In the barracks-theater one can see The Life of an Agent, a documentary on the methods used by the secret police, directed by Gábor Zsigmond Papp. The film is being shown with English subtitles.
