Johannes Ewald was a Danish poet and dramatist known for being one of the most beloved national poets of the 18th century. The poet’s song is even a part of the Danish National Anthem.

Another iconic 18th century poet and playwright- John Hermann Wessel who came from a Danish-Norwegian descent, was famous for his satirical plays with a touch of humour.

The Johannes Ewald Og Johan Hermann Wessel is a statue dedicated to these two national icons and depicts the bronze cast of their face on a pedestal with two angels sitting above the small column. For the sheer antique appeal of the sculpture, don’t forget to click a few pictures when here.
