Pomnik Bachusa w Zielonej Górze, Bronze sculpture in Zielona Góra, Poland
The Bacchus monument is a bronze sculpture depicting the Roman god of wine seated on a barrel, crowned with a grapevine wreath and holding a ribbon bearing the city coat of arms. The statue rises on a pedestal at the intersection of Kupiecka Street, Żeromskiego Street, and Independence Avenue.
The monument was unveiled in 2010, replacing an electrical transformer station that had served as a gathering spot for local residents for several decades. Its placement marked a turning point in reshaping the public square and the city's tourist identity.
The figure embodies the city's connection to wine growing and becomes the focal point during the annual Wine Festival, when an actor portraying Bacchus receives the symbolic keys to the city from the mayor. This tradition shows how deeply wine culture is woven into the identity of Zielona Góra.
The area around the monument is easily accessible on foot and centrally located in the city center, making it a natural stopping point while exploring. It is worth visiting the surroundings at different times of day, as lighting showcases different details of the sculpture.
The monument sparked the creation of over 50 small Bacchus figurines scattered throughout the city, forming a tourist trail for visitors to follow. These miniature sculptures were gradually installed in different neighborhoods and encourage people to discover lesser-known corners of the place.
