This memorial was errected after the Franco-Prussian War on the West edge of the Alster, not far ftom the American Consulate.

The statue group in bronze depicts a wounded Ulan and the horse, which has collapsed under him, behind him stands a symbolic angel.

Around the red granite plinth of the group are bronze plaques with the names of those who fell, whilst serving with Hamburg's

Infanterie-Regiment 76, which had been raised in 1867.
