Show sight on map

Schiller's Bench in Toruń – a bench placed in the park on Rybaki Street, in Bydgoskie Przedmieście in Toruń, commemorating the poet, playwright and historian Friedrich Schiller. Originally, it was supposed to be unveiled in 1905, on the 150th anniversary of Schiller's birth, but only a commemorative linden tree was planted on time. It was made in 1909 or 1910. The initiator of the construction was the principal of the Toruń high school, Dr. Maydarn. The bench was restored and moved to another part of the park in 2004, thanks to the efforts of Toruń photographer Jacek Chmielewski. It was put into use again on September 21, 2005.
