The Little Mermaid was made one of the Worlds noted statue with the publishing of Hans Christian Anderson's fairy tale in 1837. The sculpture was created by Edward Eriksen, given to the City of Copenhagen in 1913 and is located close to the shore at Langelinie facing the harbor entrance from the sound. Elaine and I were fortunate to take Mooatash Joe, Scandinavia tour of Denmark, Norway and Scotland in September of 2000. The tour took us on various forms of transportation from Cruise Ship, Railroad and bus. You have to look closely to see the chain that attaches the neck brace to the pole. No, I didn't do anything wrong but was relieved as the neck strap was removed.
