The article presents the issues of interpretative possibilities and ways of presenting a tree symbol in the design of memorial sites. These studies are an introduction to in-depth research on the methodology of designing memorial sites. The work aims to study the "tree" symbol in shaping the morphological structure of the architecture of memorial sites. The work attempts to show the "tree" as a kind of "idiom," shaping the structural character of memorial sites.
