Heinrich Schliemann Monument at Pfaffenteich

Heinrich Schliemann was born in Neubukow in the (partial) Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin as the fifth of nine children of Pastor Ernst (Johann Adolph) Schliemann (1780–1870) and his wife Louise (Therese Sophie), née Bürger (1793–1831), daughter of the later mayor of Sternberg.Source:

The bronze bust of the Troy discoverer Heinrich Schliemann (1822-1890) is returning to Schwerin's Pfaffenteich. A cast of the destroyed work of art, made possible by the Sparkasse Mecklenburg-Schwerin, was inaugurated on Wednesday in a ceremonial ceremony on the base of the monument on the Schliemann Terrace, which had been abandoned for almost a year. "The Schliemann monument is part of Schwerin's cityscape. I am happy and grateful that our savings bank made the cast of the work of art possible through a donation," said Mayor Angelika Gramkow. The monument to the Troy excavator was stolen from the Schliemann Terrace on the Pfaffenteich last August and sold as non-ferrous scrap to a Schwerin scrap dealer - for just around 250 euros.Source:schwerin.de/news/cb271a13-1f88-11e7-bbc2-1967de695b51

The Schliemann monument on the Pfaffenteich is part of the Schwerin cityscape. It commemorates Heinrich Schliemann (1822 – 1890), who discovered Troy, with a bronze bust (recast 2012). The original was designed by the Schwerin sculptor Hugo Berwald in 1895.

With his discoveries and finds in Troy, Mycenae and other places, Schliemann drew public attention to archeology at the time.

He is still regarded as a pioneer of modern archeology and gained great recognition for the rediscovery of pre-classic cultures in Greece and present-day Turkey.
