Statue of Jean Rapp, Bronze monument in Place Rapp, Colmar, France
The bronze statue depicts General Jean Rapp standing tall in military uniform, with detailed inscriptions on its pedestal commemorating his military service.
Created in 1854 by Auguste Bartholdi at age twenty, the statue first stood on the Champs-Élysées before moving to Colmar in 1856.
The monument represents French military tradition through the portrayal of General Rapp, who served with distinction during the Napoleonic Wars.
The statue occupies a central position in Place Rapp, which was redeveloped in 2000 to prioritize pedestrian access and public gatherings.
During World War II, the statue suffered destruction under Nazi occupation but underwent complete restoration in 1948 using the original pedestal.
