Gelle Fra ('Golden Lady') is a gilded female figure standing atop a 21-metre granite obelisk on the Constitution Square (Place de la Constitution). She symbolises freedom and commemorates Luxembourg's volunteers who died in World War I.
Unveiled in 1923, the monument was dismantled by the Nazi occupation in 1940. It was re-erected in 1984 after the original bronze was rediscovered in the city's stadium cellars. A second bronze soldier was added at the base to honour WWII dead.
