Siegfried der Drachentöter, Marble sculpture in Bürgerpark, Bremen, Germany.

The marble statue depicts Siegfried slaying a dragon, standing on a round sandstone pedestal next to the Parkhotel in Bremen-Schwachhausen.

Constantin Dausch created this marble sculpture in 1875, which was transformed into a fountain figure during the North West German Trade Exhibition of 1890.

The statue represents a central figure from Germanic mythology, depicting the hero Siegfried from the Nibelung saga at the moment of dragon conquest.

The monument stands at coordinates 53°5'21.3" N, 8°49'14.2" E, accessible through the western section of Bürgerpark near the Parkhotel entrance.

The dragon's mouth originally functioned as a water spout when the statue served as a temporary fountain during the 1890 industrial exhibition.
