Lonely Planet review

Erected in 2001 on the site where a gigantic statue of Lenin once stood, the 24m-high Sofia Monument was created as a new civic symbol for the city. The bronze female figure at the top of the column, holding the wreath of victory in her right hand and balancing an owl on her left arm, represents Sofia, personification of wisdom and fate.
