Moomintroll, Bronze statue in Sorsapuisto park, Tampere, Finland
The Moomintroll figure stands near the staircase leading to the Tampere Art Museum, capturing the character's childlike features in solid bronze form.
Created by artist Tuulikki Pietilä in 2004, the statue first resided at the Metso Library before moving to its current location near the Moomin Museum.
The statue represents Finland's connection to the Moomin stories, bringing the character from literature into physical form for visitors to experience.
Located next to Tampere Hall, the statue serves as a meeting point and photo opportunity for museum visitors throughout the year.
The statue's position allows natural light to reflect off its bronze surface, changing its appearance through different seasons and weather conditions.
