Olof Palme (1927 - 1986) was a Social Democrat politician and two-time Prime Minister of Sweden (1969 - 76 and 1982 - 86) who was assassinated on a Stockholm street on 28 February 1986. This statue was erected three years later. It was made by sculptor Willy Gordon who grew up in Malmö, and who made several other statues of figures from the labour movement. Olof Palme visited Folkets park on many occasions mostly to meet colleagues, though he also gave speeches at the May Day celebrations in 1966, 1969 and 1980. The statue is made of bronze and granite, and was donated by the National Folkets Park Organisation.
