Robert Falcon Scott Memorial
The Statue of Robert Falcon Scott commemorates Antarctic explorer Robert Falcon Scott. It is located at the intersection of Oxford Terrace and Worcester Street in the Christchurch Central City, New Zealand.
After the news of Scott’s death in Antarctica reached Christchurch on 11 February 1913, a memorial fund and committee was established to honour the expedition. Inspired by the statue of Scott which his wife, Kathleen Scott (1878-1947), had already carved for display in London in 1915, the committee hired her to produce a replica.
