    The monument in the 56-osok Square depicts a man tied up in a noose, standing behind a stone slab symbolizing a flag with holes. The inscription on the memorial plaque reads: "THIS BUILDING WAS THE HEADQUARTERS OF THE 1956/ SZOMBATHELY REVOLUTIONARY NATIONAL GUARD/ HERE THEY WERE SURRENDERED/ ON NOVEMBER 4, 1956/ THE NATIONAL GUARDS WHO PERFORMED THEIR SERVICE/ THIS PLAQUE WAS PLACED IN MEMORY OF THEM/ AND IN MEMORY OF THE OTHER HEROIC DEAD/ ON OCTOBER 23, 1989/ BY THE GYULA HUNGRY CIRCLE/ THE UNION OF YOUNG DEMOCRATS/ THE HUNGARIAN DEMOCRAT FORUM/ THE UNION OF FREE DEMOCRATS"
