Origin and history
The statue of Sergeant Blandan is a historic monument located in Nancy, on Padua Square. It consists of the statue itself, its base and two bas-reliefs. These elements have been protected since their registration by order of 9 October 2024, attesting to their heritage value and their anchoring in the public space of Benin.
The monument is the property of the commune of Nancy, in the department of Meurthe-et-Moselle, in the region Grand Est (formerly Lorraine). Although its GPS location is considered "passable" (note 5/10), its official address is clearly identified as Padua Square. No information is available on its accessibility to the public or its possible use (visits, rentals).
Available sources, including the Merimée and Monumentum Base, confirm its status as a historical monument without providing further details on its origin, author or Sergeant Blandan himself. The lack of accurate data on its period of creation or historical context limits the understanding of its symbolic or commemorative significance.
