Whaler's Monument

[5][6] It features an elegant fishing boat raised by a whale fin.

It depicts four stylized figures of whalers with oars in an open boat, with harpoons ready and water spraying.

The dramatic effect is enhanced by the water columns in the fountain that are regulated at different heights.

[7][8][9] The costs associated with the design and construction of the sculpture were donated to the city by shipowner and whaling magnateLars Christensen.

Earlier, Consul Christensen had also funded the costs associated with the construction and development of the Sandefjord Museum.
