Cimbrian Bull, Bronze sculpture at Vesterbro, Aalborg, Denmark

The Cimbrian Bull is a bronze sculpture positioned on a raised pedestal in Vesterbro in Aalborg. The powerful animal sits above the traffic flow on a substantial base that emphasizes its prominence in the urban landscape.

The sculpture was created in 1937 by Danish sculptor Anders Bundgaard and funded by a distillery. It was built on the site of a former factory that had previously occupied this location in the city.

The name refers to the Cimbrians, an ancient Germanic people whose legacy connects to this region. The inscription on the base links the sculpture to literary works that highlight its symbolic meaning for the area.

The sculpture is located in central Aalborg near the shopping streets of Vesterbro. It is easy to reach and sits in a central spot where many people pass by.

A renowned writer of the time composed a special text for the inscription on the base. This literary connection makes the work more than just a monument, as it bridges art and literature.
