Capitoline Wolf in Timișoara, Bronze sculpture in Victory Square, Timișoara, Romania.
The bronze statue depicts a she-wolf nursing the twins Romulus and Remus, mounted on a granite pedestal measuring 4.96 meters in height.
The municipality of Rome donated this replica to Timișoara in 1926, marking the strong connection between Romanian and Italian peoples through their Latin heritage.
The sculpture stands between the Metropolitan Cathedral and Palace of Culture, representing one of several copies distributed throughout Romania by the Italian government.
Visitors can locate this historic monument in Victory Square, a central gathering point that connects major streets and architectural landmarks of Timișoara.
The statue temporarily disappeared during World War II when Romania opposed the Axis powers but returned to its location during Nicolae Ceaușescu's period.
