Mannerheim statue, Bronze equestrian monument in Savilahti, Mikkeli, Finland
The statue shows Marshal Mannerheim mounted on a horse with a staff in his right hand and reins in his left, standing 3.6 meters tall.
Created by sculptor Veikko Leppänen in 1959, this statue commemorates Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim, who led Finland through critical periods of independence and warfare.
The monument represents Finnish military leadership and national identity, positioned near other memorials that honor the country's military history.
The statue stands in an accessible location where visitors can observe both the artistic details and the surrounding memorial stones and trees.
The horse's dynamic pose, with raised left foreleg and right hind leg, creates movement in the bronze composition atop its grey granite base.
