FORSAVN sculpture was made for it's place on Kongens Skibsbro in Nyborg. Kongens Skibsbro had been calling port for Nyborg through the centuries. 

The sculpture is build by Lars Abrahamsen - hailing from the midst of Fyn.

The sculpture is 5 meter tall, made of aluminium, which can be turned on a circular tier. 

This maritime sculpture is a monument over the sea, sailing and the sailors left out there. 

The monument reminds you of a sinking ship, a giant sail, a compass with a large needle - or maybe something else?

It is a reminder of the 35 sailors who lost their lifes under their heroic efforts against the Germane supremacy. It has four bronze plates, engraved with the name of the 35 sailors.
