The Lion of Belfort stands tall as a mighty monument designed by Auguste Bartholdi on the cliff beneath Belfort Castle. This iconic statue embodies the courageous resistance of the French army, which held its ground against the Prussian forces during the tumultuous French-Prussian War (1870-71). Bartholdi's monumental lion serves as a testament to the heroic siege of Belfort, a pivotal moment in history that left an indelible mark on France. A native of Colmar, Bartholdi is renowned for his breathtaking creations, including the iconic Statue of Liberty in New York City. As he envisioned it, "a colossal lion, harried, driven back and yet still terrifying in its fury" - this phrase aptly captures the essence of Bartholdi's masterpiece. Despite initial difficulties finding a model, Bartholdi persevered, taking pride in his creation as a proud native of Belfort.
