Rytterstatue

On the harbour in Sønderborg stands this beautiful equestrian statue.

The plinth shows the rider on horse back galloping towards the gallows, while the sculpture itself is a beautiful female rider in silent walk - perhaps on her way to the procession.

Horse and rider in bronze on a granite plinth. Artist: Hans Pauli Olsen.

The 2.25 m high and 1.90 m wide.

The statue was purchased by the Tilting at the Ring Committee and given to Sønderborg Municipality on 10th July, 1998.
