Schillerdenkmal, Bronze statue in Mitte, Germany.
The Schiller Monument displays a dignified figure of the poet Friedrich Schiller wearing a laurel wreath, standing on a cube-shaped pedestal near Georgstraße.
Wilhelm Engelhard created this memorial statue in 1863, following German-wide celebrations of Friedrich Schiller's centenary birthday that occurred in November 1859.
The monument represents four central themes of Schiller's work through separate figures: poetry, drama, philosophy, and historical writing, placed around the base.
Visitors can reach the wheelchair-accessible monument by following Schillerstraße until its intersection with Georgstraße in central Hannover.
Four semicircular basins surround the central statue, featuring lion-head water spouts that were never activated for their intended fountain purpose.
