Bismarck monument, Bronze equestrian statue near Bremen Cathedral, Germany.

The Bismarck monument presents Otto von Bismarck mounted on horseback, holding a scroll while wearing a Cuirassier regiment uniform and helmet.

The memorial, unveiled on July 9, 1910, was commissioned by Bremen's mayor Alfred Pauli through public donations despite financial challenges during that period.

The statue incorporates design elements from Verrocchio's Bartolomeo Colleoni monument in Venice, marking its connection to European sculptural traditions.

The memorial stands on a six-meter plinth made of Unterberg quasi-marble, offering clear visibility from multiple angles near the cathedral square.

This monument represents the single equestrian statue of Otto von Bismarck throughout Germany, distinguishing it from other Bismarck memorials nationwide.
