Revolution Monument or Monument to Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg:

The architect Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969) designed this monument in memory of those two German Communists murdered on January 15, 1919. It was built in 1926 in the cemetery of Berlin and destroyed in 1933 when the nazis reached the power.The monument consists of several prismatic volumes with different brick structures located in different relative planes to each others. Thereby, this effect projects cast shadows between them, reinforcing the monumental and austere character of the proposal. Above this abstract background, there are figurative symbols like the star and the mast, and an inscription that invoking the violence which gave rise to the monument, proclaims: "In spite of everything."
