After having been temporarily transferred to the Sanssouci Palace in Potsdam, the 13.5 m/44ft high statue of Frederick the Great by C. D. Rauch (1851) was re-erected here in the middle of Berlin's Unter den Linden, between Humboldt University and the State Library, in 1980. The statue, one of Rauch's masterpieces, depicts the king riding on his favorite horse, Condé, wearing his coronation robes, three-cornered hat and topboots and holding a stick.
