The sculpture below is made of five girders salvaged from the World Trade Centre and gifted to the city of Christchurch in May 2002. The sculpture is a memorial to firefighters worldwide who have died in the course of duty. It was dedicated in October 2002 on the occasion of the World Firefighters' Games which were held in Christchurch that year.
