Pohjan neito, Bronze sculpture in Lyötynpuisto, Oulu, Finland.

The bronze sculpture stands 166 centimeters tall, depicting a female figure created by artist Viljo Savikurje in the Lyötynpuisto park.

Pohjanmaa Company presented this sculpture to the city of Oulu in 1967 during their 50th anniversary celebration, placing it near their headquarters.

Students from local universities continue the tradition of placing graduation caps on the statue during spring celebrations in Oulu.

The sculpture remains accessible throughout the year in the Vanhatulli district of central Oulu, near several public transportation stops.

The local community refers to this sculpture as the Havis Amanda of Oulu, connecting it to Helsinki's similar maritime-themed public art.
