Embassy Managua

In October and November 2022, the German Embassy in Managua organised a competition for the individual design of a 2-metre Buddy Bear sculpture, which is now installed in the garden near the entrance to the embassy.

The winner of the competition was the talented and very dedicated artist Gabriela Padilla, who painted the bear with typical Nicaraguan symbols: the national flower Sacuanjoche, the volcanoes, the special fauna and flora and the national coat of arms of Nicaragua. Congratulations on this beautiful Buddy Bear!
