Abstract

An area-expandable monument is provided for a cabin of a vehicle that includes, but is not limited to two housing parts that are displaceable relative to each other and can be fastened. A gap between the housing parts in an expanded state can be covered by a covering element. In the monument, a first sanitary fixture could be arranged whose position adapts to the spatial state of the monument. Optionally, there is also a pivotable second sanitary fixture that can be activated with the monument in its pushed-out state.
