Kämpfende Wisente, Bronze sculpture near Prospekt Mira, Kaliningrad, Russia.
Two large bronze bison figures stand in a dynamic combat position, displaying their muscular forms and intense confrontation at the courthouse entrance.
Created by German sculptor August Gaul in 1912, these figures were initially meant for Münster Castle before being donated to Königsberg, now Kaliningrad.
The sculptures earned the nickname 'Prosecutor and Defender' from local residents due to their placement at the district court building.
Located at coordinates 54.7203932° N, 20.4969313° E, the monument remains accessible throughout the year for photography and viewing.
The realistic style of these bronze bison sculptures contributed to their preservation through World War II when many other artworks were destroyed.
