Engels-Denkmal, Bronze monument in Engelsgarten, Wuppertal, Germany
The Engels Monument, created by Zeng Chenggang, stands 3.85 meters tall and weighs 868 kilograms, displayed on a two-ton steel pedestal shaped like a truncated pyramid.
The monument location between Engels House and his birthplace site marks the connection to Friedrich Engels, who spent his childhood in Wuppertal during the 19th century.
The statue features inscriptions in German and Chinese languages, including Engels' quote about work being the source of wealth and human existence.
The monument provides a central meeting point in Engelsgarten, with the statue positioned to face Engels House, creating opportunities for photography.
The sculpture emerged from a Chinese government delegation visit in 2010, leading to its creation and installation as a gift from China to Wuppertal in 2014.
