Kleine Schanze Park near Parliament- Bern


Das Weltpostdenkmal steht auf der Kleinen Schanze in Bern und erinnert daran, dass Bern Gründungsstadt und Sitz des seit 1874 bestehenden Weltpostvereins ist.
Die Bronzeplastik namens Autour du monde («Rund um die Welt») stammt von dem Franzosen René de Saint-Marceaux (1845–1915), der damit 1903 ein internationales Preisausschreiben gewann. Die Einweihung des rund 200 000 Schweizer Franken teuren Denkmals fand neun Jahre später, am 4. Oktober 1909 statt.
