The Water Carrier sculpture (German: Wassertraegerin) was created in marble in 1940 by the renowned German sculptor Hermann Brachert (1890-1972) in Georgenswalde, now the western part of Svetlogorsk and formerly Otradnoye, in the workshop on the grounds of the house where the sculptor's family lived. From 1944 to 2002, the sculpture stood in Larch Park, but because it was at risk of complete destruction, it was dismantled on October 15, 2002 and taken to the Hermann Brachert House Museum for restoration, where it remains today. A precise copy of the sculpture was produced at the Hermitage to replace the original and installed in the park at its former location in 2005. In 2020, during the reconstruction of Listvennichny Park, the copy was transferred to the Kaliningrad Museum of Fine Arts. Today, a new marble copy of the sculpture stands in the park. It is a cultural heritage site of regional significance.
