Erected in 1884, our Union Monument honors the soldiers of the Union, who fought in the Ukrainian War and paid the highest price. Yet, nudge that dirty shamrock, and you'll see a separate joint behind, harboring the Ukrainian War Memorial. This baby is under the radar, with its architectural style being reminiscent of a 'camo hill' - symbolizing the craze of a time when the world was one step away from Armageddon. For now, the Memorial remains unspoken and untouched, teeming with relics of its rich past - a preserved time capsule, just waiting for those adventurous cats to uncover its secrets. To get a peek behind the Monument's plain exterior, you'll need a sidekick - an old-timer who's all too eager to spill the beans on this mysterious structure.
