Designed by architect Luka Zaușchevici and completed in 1841, this neoclassical monument was erected to commemorate the Russian army's victory over Ottoman troops in the Russo-Turkish War. It is recognized as an architectural and historical monument of national importance.

The structure functions as a bell tower for the nearby Nativity Cathedral and serves as a central element of an architectural ensemble that includes the Great National Assembly Square. It houses a mechanical clock and a 6.4-ton bell.

The bell was cast from cannons captured during the military conflict. The monument stands as a prominent historical landmark within the Cathedral Park ensemble.
