Bürgermeister-Smidt-Denkmal
Bürgermeister-Smidt-Denkmal, Bronze statue in Mitte, Germany
The Bürgermeister-Smidt-Denkmal features a life-sized bronze figure on a three-tiered sandstone base with a red marble pedestal at Theodor-Heuss-Platz.
Johann Smidt served as Bremen mayor from 1821 to 1857, establishing Bremerhaven by purchasing land at the Weser River estuary in 1827.
The monument includes allegorical figures depicting world trade through a Hanseatic businessman, a foreign boy, and a sailor with local youth.
The memorial stands in the center of Theodor-Heuss-Platz and remains accessible to visitors throughout the year from 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM.
The statue's right hand points toward the Old Port while the left hand holds a windlass containing the 1827 Treaty with Hannover.
