In 1863, a cast-iron monument to the "Sleeping Lion" was erected in the park, commemorating Prince Eugeniusz Erdmann - a tsarist general who had distinguished himself during the battles with Napoleon. The monument is a symbol of the peace that reigned in Europe after defeating the "Little Corporal" and a symbol of remembrance of those who died during the 20-year war. The author of the monument is Teodor Kalide, a sculptor from Gliwice.
