Gustav II Adolf (* 9 December 19th 1594 in Stockholm; † 6 November 16th 1632 near Lützen) from the House of Vasa was King of Sweden from 1611 to 1632 and one of the most important figures in Swedish history and the Thirty Years' War. Through reforms and his military and political actions, he contributed significantly to giving Sweden a hegemonic position in northern Europe, which lasted until the beginning of the 18th century. His intervention in the Thirty Years' War in Germany, motivated by the need to enforce this hegemonic position, prevented a victory for the imperial-Catholic camp of the Habsburgs and thus also secured the existence of German Protestantism.

The monument to Gustav II Adolf in Stockholm, which stands on Gustav Adolf Square, honors the Swedish king and general who lived in the 17th century and is considered one of the most important military strategists of his time.
