The monument to Bogusław X and Anna Jagiellon is in front of the Pomeranian Dukes' Castle at Korsarzy, near the Castle Route, approx. 1.5 km from the Main Railway Station. The nearest bus stop is at Grodzka, where buses no. 52, 70, 76 stop.
The monument was made by Leonia Chmielnik and Anna Paszkiewicz. They are also the authors of the Griffin standing in front of the City Hall. The sculptures made by the artists usually have a raw form. The same is the case with this one. The monument was unveiled in 1974. It shows the princely couple, probably on their wedding day, as suggested by the inscription on the pedestal. Bogusław X was considered to be a wise ruler, which earned him the nickname the Great. However, he was already 37 years old widower before meeting his second love. Anna Jagiellon, marrying him, was in turn at a very young age (she was 15). However, this did not prevent her from building a lasting and unbreakable bond with her husband. Their marriage was a symbol of strengthening the ties between Poland and Pomerania. Yellow sandstone was used to create the work.
