Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Saint George, who kills the dragon on horseback and, according to legend, not only freed the princess from the monster, but an entire city, is one of the most photographed monuments in Berlin. The 6m high statue group by sculptor August Kiss (1802 – 1865) is fascinating for its detailed design. Until the demolition of the Stadtschloss, the monument was located in it’s courtyard, later in Friedrichshain park. With the reconstruction of the Nikolaiviertel the equestrian statue has found a proper place in Berlin’s historic center. Right by the Spree River and facing the oldest church in the city – St. Nicholas Church. The equestrian statue is placed somewhere between late Classicism and Neo-Baroque. This is a photograph of an architectural monument. It is on the list of cultural monuments of Berlin, no. 09011266. |
