Taken in the Summer of 2002 at Szoborpark (Memento Park) on the outskirts of Budapest.
After the Cold War, the Hungarians gathered up a lot of the old Communist statues and a selection of them were put together in an open-air park called Szoborpark (Memento Park.)

I think they had the correct idea; get rid of most of them but keep enough around in a remembrance park that people do not forget and history doesn’t repeat itself (despite the fact it always seems to).

Yes. I’ve been surprised to see old Communist statues remain up in some places (e.g. Kyrgyzstan.) Of course, I think places like Estonia had them all melted or otherwise destroyed as rapidly as was humanly possible.

Given what little I’ve heard of how the Estonians were treated, I’d say that’s understandable.
