The sculpture of a wild man was conceived as a gift to the people of Klaipėda and history - the old coat of arms of the Friedrich suburb depicted a wild man, which this sculpture repeated.

The emphasis on the coat of arms of the city of Friedrich with the sculpture "Wilder Mann" became a signpost to the "Passage Friedrich" - a closed street with cafes and restaurants. The wild man, crowned with oak leaves and leaning on an anchor, connects the past with the current purpose of the street, and the plaques on the base bring a smile to the face of passers-by...
