The monument and the naming of the square after the Slovak nationalist and cleric Andrej Hlinka testify to the ambivalence of Slovak remembrance culture. Hlinka died in 1938. So-called Hlinka Guards were involved in the persecution of Jews from 1938 onward. Anyone can form their own opinion about Hlinka here: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrej_Hlinka
