I could have chosen any number of crosses representing this lasting monument. However, this was taken on our trip to Rome & the Vatican in 2005

This monument in Freedom Square, Talinn was conceived in 1919, during the war of independence from Russia. However, due to later annexation byNazi Germany and then the Soviet Union was not able to be built until 2009.
