On a mountaintop of the Stara Planina mountain range in Bulgaria sits a monument to the glory days of communism in that country. Now abandoned and deteriorating, the Buzludzha Monument commemorates the moment in 1891when a group of people met in secret to organize the socialist movement. It took more than seven years to build, more than 60 Bulgarian artists created the murals that line its interior walls, and its dome-shaped roof was covered with 30 tons of copper (story and slideshow): http://www.amusingplanet.com/2013/03/abandoned-buzludzha-monument-at-bulgaria.html
