Quadriga of Brunswick, Bronze statue in Brunswick, Germany
The Brunswick Quadriga depicts a four-horse chariot with symbolic deities on top of the reconstructed Braunschweig Palace, measuring 9 meters in height.
The original Quadriga, created in 1863 by sculptor Ernst Rietschel, was destroyed in a fire, leading to the creation of a second version by Georg Howaldt.
The monument incorporates figures representing the artistic and governmental principles of the Brunswick dukes through classical architectural elements and bronze craftsmanship.
The statue stands at coordinates 52.2634° N and 10.5273° E, with restricted access due to its elevated position on the palace structure.
A smaller replica of the second Brunswick Quadriga was exhibited at the 1893 World Exhibition in Chicago, demonstrating its international recognition.
