Statue of Bayard in Grenoble, Bronze monument in Place Saint-André, Grenoble, France

The statue depicts Pierre Terrail de Bayard in a wounded position, leaning against a rock while holding his sword, with his helmet at his feet.

Created by sculptor Nicolas Raggi in 1822, the statue was commissioned by Baron d'Haussez, then prefect of Isère, to honor the Renaissance knight's legacy.

The statue stands near the Collegiate Church of Saint-André, where Bayard's remains were transferred during the monument's inauguration ceremony in August 1822.

Located in the pedestrian zone of central Grenoble, the statue is accessible via the Hubert Dubedout - Maison du Tourisme tram station with wheelchair facilities.

The bronze statue was cast by Charles Crozatier and appears in a portrait of Charles Planelli de Lavalette, displayed at the Museum of Grenoble.
