Statue of Bear in Vyborg, Granite monument in Theatre Square, Vyborg, Russia.

The Bear Statue stands prominently in Theatre Square, displaying the artistic craftsmanship of sculptor Eva Gyldén through its detailed granite construction.

The monument, established in 1913, has remained in its original location through multiple changes of territorial control between Russia, Finland, and the Soviet Union.

The statue represents a regional cultural heritage site that reflects early 20th-century artistic expressions and the multicultural influences present in Vyborg.

Located at coordinates 60.711667, 28.737778, the monument provides a central meeting point near public transportation and local amenities in Theatre Square.

The granite bear figure maintains its original structural integrity despite the extensive damage sustained by many surrounding buildings during World War II.
