About The National Memorial

The National Memorial at Saver is a symbol of the nation’s  respect for the martyrs of the war of Liberation.

It is built with concrete, but made of blood. It’s stands 150 feet tall, but every martyr it stands so much taller .It is an achievement the dimensions of which can be measured, but it stands for an achievement, which is immeasurable. It stands upright for the millions of martyrs who laid down their lives so that we may stand upright, in honour and dignity, amongst the nations of the world.

Most prominently visible is the 150 feet tower that stands on a base measuring 130 feet wide . There is actually a series of 7 towers that rise by stages to a height of 150 feet .The foundation was laid on the first anniversary of the Victory Day .There is actually a plan to build a huge complex in several phases. The entire complex will cover an area of 126 acres. The plan of this complex includes a mosque, a library, and a museum .The relics of the liberation war will be kept in the museum .They will ever remind our countrymen and all who would come to visit the museum of the valiant struggle and supreme sacrifices of a freedom loving people .Here also will be a clear warning to all oppressors that the weapons of freedom need not be very  big ,and that oppression will always be defeated .The will of the people prevails, for man is born to be free .

The most moving sight of the complex is  the several graves of the martyred freedom fighters; close to the tower .Standing in front of the graves we bow down our heads in respect, as the towers soar up symbolizing the loftiness of their spirit.
