This is a half-size bronze replica of the original Little Mermaid statue, which has sat on a rock in Copenhagen Harbor since 1913. This pipsqueak mermaid was a Bicentennial gift to the city by the owners of Denmarket Square, which is where she sits on her own landlocked rock. The Little Mermaid is the civic symbol of Solvang, America's self-proclaimed "Little Denmark."
