The memorial is the culmination of over two decades of work. The idea of erecting a Hungarian Monument was proposed and organized by Mr. Dobolyi with the cooperation of the Hungarian community in 1984. The granite construction of cremation niches provides the background for the monument featuring the Hungarian Crest in the center with the Hungarian Turul on top. The Turul is cast in bronze, with its wings spread wide and clutching a sword in its talons.
