  • 国家纪念堂(National Monument)位于苏格兰爱丁堡,是为了纪念在拿破仑战争中阵亡的苏格兰士兵。 国家纪念堂矗立在爱丁堡新城以东的卡尔顿山山顶。它是由查尔斯·罗伯特·科克雷尔和他的合作者威廉·亨利·普莱费尔设计,以雅典帕特农神庙为蓝本。在1826年开工建设,但是仅有部分完成。 早在1817年,人们呼吁在爱丁堡兴建一座纪念堂,以纪念在拿破仑战争中的阵亡者。1822年1月,有人提议建造一个帕特农神庙的复制品,花费4.2万英镑。这项提议得到沃尔特·司各特爵士等众多著名人士的支持。但是十六个月后,只得到1.6万英镑捐款,以及国会的1万英镑赠款。1826年终于开工,但是由于使用优质材料,资金所剩无几,到1829年被迫停建。当地人传说,格拉斯哥愿意支付费用,但是爱丁堡太骄傲,不愿接受其他城市的好心。因此,该纪念堂的绰号是“爱丁堡的耻辱”或“爱丁堡的愚蠢”。 后来,试图完成国家纪念堂的尝试,由于缺少资金,或者由于缺乏热情,都没有结果。2004年又有一项提议。 (zh)
