This ‘Güven Anıtı’ (= Monument of Confidence) was erected in 1935. Its designers were two Austrians: Anton Hanak (1875-1934) and Josef Thorak (1889-1952).

Hanak was professor of monumental sculpture, first at the School of Applied Arts in Vienna (1913-1932) and later on at Vienna's Academy of Fine Arts (1932-1934).
Thorak became (in 1933) one of the two "official sculptors" of the Third Reich. Both artists were well known for their "grandiose monuments".
