The city of Trieste dedicates a statue to Gabriele D'Annunzio

After extensive research, it can be determined: There is no officially confirmed statue of Hermann Hesse in Trieste. Most of the well-known monuments honoring the writer are located in Calw, his birthplace in the Black Forest, including:

The statue "Between Staying and Departure" on the Nikolaus Bridge

The Knulp sculpture at Sparkassenplatz

The Hesse Garden along the Hagbrunnenbach stream

📍 More about the statue in Calw at Komoot

🧭 Hesse and Trieste – a connection?
Although Hermann Hesse was not directly connected to Trieste like James Joyce or Italo Svevo, it is conceivable that his work is read and appreciated there – especially in the context of literary modernism and German-language exile literature.

If you saw a sculpture in Trieste that resembled Hesse or appeared to be dedicated to him, it could be a temporary installation, a private homage, or a mistake for another author.
