This obelisk planted on top of the citadel hill, east of the city, was erected in 1900 by the sculptors Vasilescu and Bălăcescu, as a tribute to the dead of the War of Independence of 1877-1878. All the way up, after climbing a good flight of stairs, you will enjoy a 360-degree view of the river, the city and the surrounding fields. It is also on this hill that the giant letters forming the name of the city were erected.
