Summary and Remarks
History

In 2002, the City of Göteborg decided to honor Raoul Wallenberg with a monument. The place for the monument was chosen in 2003 and the Charles Felix Lindbergs donationfond was commissioned to realize the project. 1,5 million SEK was provided for this purpose. A jury set for the project in 2003 approached several artists and in unanimously voted for Gyllenhammar's proposal (Schult, p. 362-363).

The memorial was unveiled on May 25, 2007, by the UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan.
