Celebrates 1956 uprising |
Budapest Park (Lake Shore Boulevard West) Toronto, ON n/a |
One of the many ethnic monuments throughout the city, this memorial was established on the 10th anniversary of the Hungarian Uprising of 1958. Created by Hungarian-born artist Victor Tolgyesy, it was funded by the Canadian Hungarian community in Toronto. Located in Budapest Park on the south side of Lake Shore Boulevard West and east of historic Sunnyside Pool, the monument stands in appreciation of Canada's acceptance of Hungarian refugees who fled that country following their failed uprising against Soviet occupation.
