Bulgaria begins from here. The Bulgarian system of chronology starts from Shumen region and that is the reason the grateful Bulgarian generation to create their legacy to the future here on this very hill.

The main idea being realized by the creative team headed by Prof. Krum Damyanov is the foundation, recognition and prosperity growth of the First Bulgarian State.

It is exhibited for close and distant perception. The eight blocks of visible concrete, forming a spiral symbolizing the gradual development and prosperity of the Bulgarian state and the only one pictorial moment � the lion, are to be seen from a distant place. The natural idea is realized through characters, fragments of inscriptions, as well as through the strongly impactive mosaic work.
