Description
Perching comfortably atop a rock in the middle of Solvang you’ll find a Little Mermaid Statue gazing over the crowded, colourful city. The 2-foot statue is a replica of what is said to be Denmark’s top attraction and was built to pay homage to the sculpture, even if it’s half the size of the original. The famous statue commemorates the sad Hans Christian Andersen tale of the mermaid who gave up everything for the doomed love of a prince. The Little Mermaid Sculpture stands proud, in the middle of the largest Danish settlement in America and is surrounded by art galleries, restaurants and souvenir shops. This an iconic landmark and one you’ll love photographing.
