Park of the Fallen - Fish Sculpture

Alongside its commemorative role, the Park of the Fallen for the Homeland contains smaller artistic accents.

The fish sculpture stands beside one of the paths in the Crikvenica - Park of the Fallen for the HomelandPark of the Fallen for the Homeland. Its simple animal motif and green setting make it a playful accent rather than a conventional memorial. It is easy to pass without noticing, yet it adds a pleasant detail to a short walk through the park.

The fish naturally refers to the sea, harbour and long fishing tradition of CrikvenicaCrikvenica. This everyday maritime subject provides a counterpoint to the nearby Park of the Fallen - National Liberation War MemorialNational Liberation War memorial and shows how the park combines remembrance with ordinary urban life.

The sculpture works best as a stop between the park and the harbour waterfront. The main square is only a few steps away, while the route east continues towards Petak and the Dubracina.
