The Six Forgotten Giants, Wooden sculpture trail in Copenhagen suburbs, Denmark.

Six large-scale wooden sculptures created by Thomas Dambo stand across different municipalities of Copenhagen, positioned in forests, meadows, and near waterways.

The sculptures were installed during the Vestegnens Culture Week in 2016, incorporating recycled wood from local demolition projects throughout Copenhagen.

Each giant sculpture received its name from volunteers who participated in their construction, connecting the local community directly to the public art installation.

The complete circuit to visit all six sculptures spans 35 kilometers, requiring a vehicle to access the dispersed locations across western Copenhagen.

Inside the sculpture named Little Tilde, 28 birdhouses provide nesting spots for local birds, combining artistic design with environmental functionality.
