The monument commemorates the Czech engineer, industrialist, and inventor František Křižík (1847-1941). The original memorial plaque from 1936 came from the workshop of sculptor Alois Holub. After the collapse of the house in the street „U Zvonu“ as a result of the bombing on December 20, 1944, the plaque was moved to the monument, where it complemented the bust of František Křižík by Stanislav Kukrál. The architect of the new monument was Svatopluk Janke. The monument was later moved to its current location in Křižík Park.

František Křižík ( 8. July 1847 – 22. January 1941) was a Czech engineer, industrialist, and inventor. His most famous invention was the self-regulating arc lamp. He invented the light fountain, perfected electric trams, and many other devices. He was also involved in the prototype construction of electric cars.
In 1881, he achieved great success at the Paris World's Fair. His arc lamp competed with Edison's incandescent bulb because it shone brighter – and won a gold medal. Křižík was called the Czech Edison, although he himself resisted this designation.
