User:Guzmank/Statue of Hans Egede
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Statue of Hans Egede is a monument in Nuuk, Greenland. It commemorates the Dano-Norwegian Lutheran missionary Hans Egede who founded Nuuk in 1728. Funded by Greenlanders', the statue lies on a hill near the shore above Nuuk Cathedral in the historical Old Nuuk area of the city. The original statue by August Saabye stands outside Frederik's Church in Copenhagen. Recent vandalisms to the statue have generated calls for removal due to Egede's missionary practices.
