The Liberation Monument in Baghdad’s Tahrir Square is a national symbol of Iraq’s fight for freedom. Designed by sculptor Jawad Saleem with architect Rifat Chadirji, it was completed in 1961. The monument features 14 bronze figures representing the 1958 revolution and the people's struggle for justice. Its style mixes ancient Mesopotamian art with modern expression. It remains a powerful icon of Iraqi identity, resistance, and hope for change.
