This is a Memorial of Otto von Bismarck (Otto Eduard Leopold von Bismarck-Schönhausen) who was a prussian Prime Minister from 1862 to 1890 and at the same Time from 1867 to 1871 the Federal Chancellor of the North German Confederation (Nordeutscher Bund). Later he became Reichs Chancellor of the German Empire (Deutsches Reich) in the Time from 1871 to 1890. I guess a lot of People know him but there are more Detailed Infos about him on Wikipedia if you are interested in History and if you want to read a lot of Details.

This is one of many Bismarck Memorials in Germany. I took the Photo of the Memorial near the Train Station in Lübeck. This Memorial has been created and placed by the german Sculptor Emil Hundrieser in 1903. The Memorial was initially placed in front of the Holsten Gate in Lübeck which I will capture and show you on a Photo maybe in the Future. But today the Memorial is placed on the Lindenplatz next to the Train Station in Lübeck. The Bismarck Memorial stands also next to a Imperor Kaiser Wilhelm I. Memorial which I will show you in one of my future Blogposts too.
