Roland statue of Quedlinburg
Roland statue of Quedlinburg, Medieval stone statue in Market Square, Quedlinburg, Germany
The Roland statue stands with a drawn sword in the central market square, measuring several meters in height and crafted from regional stone materials.
The statue was erected near the year 1600 during a period when German cities established their administrative independence through such monuments.
Roland statues across Germany represent market rights and municipal liberties, with this example marking Quedlinburg's status as a self-governing medieval town.
