The equestrian monument to Friedrich Franz II in Schwerin is the only historic equestrian monument in Mecklenburg and the main work of the sculptor Ludwig Brunow. Financed primarily by donations, it was created by the artist in the years 1887-1892 and inaugurated 10 years after the death of the Grand Duke honored here in 1893 with the participation of the European nobility and with military honours. In grateful recognition of his work, the artist was awarded the "Knight's Cross of the House Order of the Wendish Crown" and the title of "Grand Ducal Professor".
