Monument with Winged Victory in Gyri
Sculpture East Central Zakynthos East Central Zakynthos
In the courtyard of the old school, of Gyri, in the square named "Dionysios Yakoumelos - Kaberis Square", (he is the donor of the land of the square and the land where the school was built), in 1968, a green marble heroes' memorial was built, in which is embedded a brass statue of the winged Victory in motion, holding a laurel branch in her hand. There is also an inscription with the phrase that Spartan mothers used to say to their children when they gave them the shield to go to war:'Or or on their heads'.  "
