Arbetets ära

The sculpture presents a group of unclothed figures lifting a substantial granite block adorned with a bronze relief depicting the Malmö skyline.

Created by sculptor Axel Ebbe in 1929 and unveiled in 1931, the monument stands as a representation of the labor movement in Sweden.

The sculpture serves as a central gathering point for demonstrations and public manifestations, particularly for left-wing movements and social causes.

The final placement of the sculpture was determined through the use of a wooden replica on wheels, which was moved around the square.

The granite block underwent multiple size adjustments, as the initial piece was too small, while its replacement required reduction to reach proper dimensions.
