Johns Hopkins Monument
The Johns Hopkins Monument, located at the intersection of
Charles and 33rd streets, was sculpted in 1935 by local artist
Hans Schuler. The monument depicts two human figures flanking a
bust of
Johns Hopkins. The male figure represents knowledge and
the University; the female figure represents healing and the
Hospital. The monument was originally located in the middle of
the intersection of Charles and 34th streets, but was moved to
its present location in 1955 after it was determined to have been
the cause of several accidents.
