Para Kaszubów na ławce, Memorial sculpture bench in Plac Kaszubski, Gdynia, Poland.
The bronze sculpture depicts an elderly couple sitting together on a bench, with the man pointing towards a specific building across the street.
The memorial commemorates Jakub Scheibe, who returned from America in 1928 and built a tenement house near the current sculpture location.
The sculpture represents the maritime traditions of the Kashubian people, showing the connection between fishermen and their families in coastal Gdynia.
Located at coordinates 54.5229675, 18.5427217, the memorial provides seating for visitors while they observe the surrounding historical architecture.
A note protrudes from Jakub's pocket containing a message from his wife requesting a room with a sea view to watch for his return.
