Schwerin Victory Column, War memorial in Schwerin, Germany
The Schwerin Victory Column rises with two winged statues holding palm branches and laurel wreaths at the top, representing the Roman goddess Victoria.
The statues were originally created by Christian Daniel Rauch in 1837 for Schloss Charlottenburg in Berlin before being cast in zinc for Schwerin Castle.
The column demonstrates the German classicism movement through its architectural design and stands as a central element in Schwerin's public celebrations.
The monument stands in Burggarten and requires physical mobility to access, as it does not provide wheelchair accessibility for visitors.
The zinc casting process after World War II resulted in variations from the original designs, making these statues different from their Berlin counterparts.
