Arad's name seems to have merged with arbitrariness, but in our opinion, it is still the place where the nation's martyrs were glorified: with their death, they rose to the highest place in the national memory for all time, street names, memorial plaques, statues, and literary works proclaim their eternal glory. The artistic reason for the creation of this book is that the bas-reliefs of the 13 Martyrs of Arad on the rebuilt Statue of Liberty are works of exceptional quality. The special feature of these reliefs is that the heads stand out from the plane of the relief, so they become independent head sculptures when viewed from the side. In addition to our martyrs, this volume is also a great tribute to the greatness of the sculptor György Zala.
The book also describes other sights of Arad connected to the War of Independence, but also guides you to Világos and Orsová, which are also significantly connected to the events of 1848-49.
