The Friendship of the Nations Statue

Coordinates: 55.711078 21.132154

Object address: Atgimimo Square, Klaipėda, Lithuania

Municipality: Klaipėda

Ca. 1955, on top of a pedestal in Tarybų Square (present day Atgimimo Square), a sculptural composition was placed, which depicted a black man, a white man, and an Asian man holding hands. The monument sought to emphasise the fact that, without the help from our brother nations, we could have never liberated Klaipėda in 1945. A plaster-cast copy of the monument stood in the courtyard of the Pioneer House’s (present day Clock Museum).
