Monument to Leopold von Sacher-Masoch

The monument to Leopold von Sacher-Masoch is one of the most famous and unusual monuments of Lviv. Located at the entrance to the restaurant with the same name and together they  representa single image of the writer who once lived here.

Leopold von Sacher-Masoch is known for being the "father" of the notion of masochism in literature. Therefore, it is logical that the interior of the cafe is executed in black and red colors and with  using chains, shackles and plethys.

A sculpture with a height of 1.7 meters was installed in April 2008.  The monument is notable for its unusual: on the chest of the bronze statue there is a magnifying glass, through which erotic pictures are visible. Somebody's hands protrude from under his coat. But  The main secret of the monument is the left pocket of his pants. If you put your hand there, you can grope ... the male dignity of the writer. Here's an unusual approach to sculpture!

Sculpture is installed opposite the door to the institution, made in the form of a keyhole, which symbolizes voyeurism.

There is a monument on one of the most beautiful streets of Lviv - theSerbian,  in the heart of the city.

Lviv  is known for a huge number of unusual sculptures. Among them a monument  backpack,  chimney sweep or  Picasso in his underwear.
