Monument of Zalongo

On the heights of Zalongo there is an impressive monument honouring the Souliot women who, during the Souliot struggle against Ali Pasha in 1803, preferred death to dishonour and threw themselves from the cliff, along with their children. The monument was erected in 1961, to the plans of the sculptor Giorgios Zongolopoulos and the architect Patroklos Karantinos.
