Monument to Nikola Tesla, Bronze monument in central Baku, Azerbaijan.
The monument displays a bronze figure about 3.3 meters (11 feet) tall, showing the inventor in an upright pose. Behind it stands a decorative panel with technical drawings of an alternating current generator.
The monument was unveiled on February 8, 2013, marking an important diplomatic moment between two nations. The ceremony drew high-ranking officials and symbolized regional recognition of the inventor's scientific legacy.
The statue was created by artists who wanted to blend scientific elements with artistic expression. Here you see a connection between pure art and technical representation, honoring both cultures.
The monument stands in a central location where pedestrians can easily find it. You can explore the surrounding area and have good access to other nearby points of interest from here.
The panel behind the statue does not simply display artistic decoration, but contains actual technical drawings of an alternating current generator. This combination of precise engineering and artwork makes the monument unusual and educational.
