Saint Florian, Stainless steel sculpture at Fire Department, Bern, Switzerland

The Saint Florian sculpture stands 350 centimeters tall and features geometric forms that represent the patron saint of firefighters in stainless steel material.

The creation and installation of Saint Florian occurred in 2016 through funding from the building insurance organization of Bern to honor fire protection services.

The sculpture combines religious symbolism of Saint Florian with modern artistic expression, reflecting the connection between faith and public service in Swiss society.

The sculpture stands at Murtenstrasse 98 near the southern entrance of the fire department building, accessible to visitors throughout the year.

The reflective properties of the stainless steel material change the appearance of the sculpture as light conditions vary throughout different times of day.
