A monument commemorates the second millenium which ended in the year 2000. 

The 2nd millennium was a period of time that began on January 1, 1001, and ended on December 31, 2000. The second millennium is perhaps more popularly thought of as beginning and ending a year earlier, thus starting at the beginning of 1000 and finishing at the end of 1999. Many public celebrations for the end of the millennium were held on December 31, 1999 – January 1, 2000.
