History

Sailer Antal (Arad 1820 - Temesvár 1904), a member of the Temesvár City Council, a wholesaler, deserved this statue thanks to his charity: the Children's Hospital, the Institute for the Blind (he donated 200,000 crowns to these two), the Orphanage, the White Cross Association, etc., were founded by his donations. The work of the sculptor Ligeti Miklós was erected in 1906.
