Facts and practical information
King Ezana's Stele is an obelisk in the ancient city of Axum, in the Tigray Region of Ethiopia. The monument stands in the middle of the Northern Stelae Park, which contains hundreds of smaller and less decorated stelae. This stele is probably the last one erected and the largest of those that remain unbroken. King Ezana of Axum's Stele stands 21 m tall, smaller than the collapsed 33 m Great Stele and the better-known 24 m "Obelisk of Axum". It is decorated with a false door at its base and apertures resembling windows on all sides. ()
