Adam-Opel-Denkmal, Bronze memorial statue in Rüsselsheim, Germany.
The bronze statue depicts industrialist Adam Opel standing with a coat and hat, measuring 3.35 meters in height and weighing 4.5 tons.
Frankfurt sculptor Emil Hub created this monument in 1937 to mark both the 75th anniversary of Opel company and the founder's 100th birth year.
The statue represents Adam Opel's transformation from a skilled metalworker to an industrial leader who established a manufacturing empire in Rüsselsheim.
The monument stands near the Opel factory entrance, allowing visitors to view it without restrictions while exploring the industrial heritage of Rüsselsheim.
The statue underwent multiple relocations across Rüsselsheim, starting at Work Gate 20, moving to the train station area, and finally reaching the Opel factory entrance.
