Monument to Mickiewicz, Bronze monument in 8th arrondissement of Paris, France.

The Monument to Mickiewicz is a tall bronze column by Antoine Bourdelle standing between rows of trees in the 8th arrondissement of Paris. Its rectangular plinth carries six bas-reliefs, among them Konrad Wallenrod, Aldona, Halban, the prisoners and Maryla from Dziady, and an allegory of the partition of Poland shown as three maidens. A winged figure leans out midway up the column, which is topped by Mickiewicz as a pilgrim with his left hand raised.

Antoine Bourdelle made the model in 1909, but the monument was only completed in 1928. It was unveiled on 28 April 1929 at Place de l'Alma, a few months before the sculptor's death, as a gift from Poland to France. It was later moved to Cours Albert-Ier in the 8th arrondissement, on the Seine embankment, a spot named Jardin d'Erevan since March 2009.

The six reliefs on the plinth take their subjects from Mickiewicz's own writings: Konrad Wallenrod, Aldona, Halban, the prisoners of Dziady, Maryla, and an allegory of the partition of Poland shown as three maidens. A further relief near the top of the column refers to the poem Grażyna. The monument was a gift from Poland to France.

The sculpture stands on Cours Albert-Ier, a relatively open space where you can view it from multiple angles. You can spot it easily from the Seine's left bank, and it is reachable by public transportation.
