Willy Brandt Memorial, Bronze monument at Willy Brandt Place, Nuremberg, Germany
The memorial features a life-sized bronze sculpture depicting the former German Chancellor seated contemplatively on a public bench.
Unveiled on November 9, 2009, this memorial pays tribute to Willy Brandt, who served as Chancellor of West Germany from 1969 to 1974.
The sculpture represents a connection between citizens and leadership, with the bench design encouraging visitors to sit next to the figure.
Located in central Nuremberg, the monument stands as a permanent installation funded by three private sponsors and supported by municipal infrastructure.
The sculptor Josef Tabachnyk won a competitive selection process against three other artists to create this commemorative installation in 2008.
