Berlin Peace Column, Monument in Mehringplatz, Berlin, Germany
The Berlin Peace Column rises 19 meters high and features a brass statue of Victoria at its summit, with a base diameter of 12 meters.
Architect Christian Gottlieb Cantian designed this monument in 1843, incorporating bronze, marble, and granite materials to create a lasting structure in Berlin.
Four figures representing the Battle of Waterloo allies were added in 1876, followed by sculptures of Peace and Clio in 1879.
The monument stands at coordinates 52.49898 latitude and 13.39176 longitude in the Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg district, near several public transportation options.
In February 2020, artist Jan Bejšovec transformed the column with textile installations that connected military history with contemporary interpretations.
