The Tell monument is on Altdorf's town hall square, in front of the Türmli. The bronze statue of Richard Kissling was inaugurated on August 28, 1895 at the foot of an old tower. It shows the Swiss national hero with shouldered crossbow accompanied by his son Walter. On the pedestal is the traditional date of the Rütli oath, 1307. The background image on the tower comes from the artist Hans Sandreuter.
