Pomnik Fryderyka II w Bydgoszczy, Historical monument in Old Market Square, Bydgoszcz, Poland.
The Frederick II Monument stands 6.38 meters tall, featuring the Prussian king in a long coat holding a scroll representing the Bydgoszcz Canal.
The statue was first erected in 1862 to honor Frederick II of Prussia, who established the Noteć District authorities and initiated the construction of Bydgoszcz Canal.
The monument represents the Prussian period in Bydgoszcz's history, designed by local artist Eduard Ludwig Uhlenhuth with funds from public donations and city authorities.
The monument underwent several relocations: it stood in Bydgoszcz until 1919, moved to Piła until 1923, returned to Bydgoszcz in 1941, and was removed in 1945.
A replica of this monument exists in Letschin, Germany, maintaining the exact sculptural style of the original Bydgoszcz statue.
