Otto von Bismarck Monument in Wrocław, Bronze monument in Wrocław, Poland.
The Otto von Bismarck Monument features a bronze statue portraying the Prussian Chancellor in cuirassier uniform mounted on a stone base. The composition includes inscriptions marking the subject's name and the year it was created.
Created around 1900 by artists Peter Breuer and Robert Hankow, the monument was built to honor Prussian rule in Silesia. After World War II, the original disappeared and was partially lost, though fragments were later recovered and restored.
The site reflects Silesia's connection to Prussian history and German influence in the region. Visitors can sense how different peoples have shaped this place over time through such monuments.
The monument is located in a central area of Wrocław and is easily accessible on foot. Visitors should allow time to examine the details of the bronze figure and surrounding inscriptions up close.
The work vanished during wartime but was later tracked down by a Polish journalist and recovered from rubble. This story reveals how individual people worked to preserve historical artworks despite the upheaval.
