Jan-Wellem-Denkmal, Bronze monument in Mülheim, Germany
The Jan-Wellem-Denkmal stands 3.15 meters tall, depicting Johann Wilhelm wearing hunting attire on a baroque-style pedestal displaying the Mülheim city coat of arms.
The monument was inaugurated on April 28, 1914, following Mülheim's incorporation into Cologne, commemorating the textile manufacturing Andreae family's 200-year business presence in the area.
Johann Wilhelm maintained strong connections with Mülheim, becoming the king of the St. Sebastianus shooting club in 1711 during his travels to Bensberg.
The monument relocated from the south side of Wiener Platz to the city garden after World War II, where visitors can observe the inscriptions on two plaques.
Eduard Schmitz designed this bronze statue, which represents the industrial heritage of Mülheim through its connection to the Andreae family's textile manufacturing legacy.
