Parc promenade Picquet-Bergere

19 Avenue Wladimir Gagneur, 39800 Poligny

A shaded park equipped with picnic tables, benches and a playground. Here you can admire the ‘Vigneron’ statue, a beautiful bronze sculpture dedicated to Wladimir Gagneur, a famous activist and Fourierist MP, located in Charcigny. It is a realistic masterpiece by Marguerite Syamour, Gagneur’s daughter, and was unveiled in 1889. The facial features, musculature and clothing are sculpted with great precision. The pose also highlights the progressive values of the 19th century: fulfilment through study (the book) and work (the wine-grower’s bag). Through Wladimir Gagneur, the statue pays tribute to Poligny’s political dynamism. The town embraced revolutionary ideals and, after 1850, secular and republican socialism.
