John Cabot gazing across the harbour at the Matthew.
John Cabot, sitting in his bronze form, gazes out over Bristol's Harbour as if still planning his next voyages to unknown lands. His statue on the waterfront is not only a tribute to the explorer himself but also a symbolic reminder of Bristol’s maritime history, which for centuries connected Europe to new continents. In a way, Cabot, "sitting" there, as you put it, watches how the city changes, as modern Bristol grows out of its old maritime traditions.
Excellent statue of an important figure in Bristol history.
Great place to go when visiting Bristol
Very beautiful statue by the harbour side. You can sit on a bench right there and enjoy a good cider with your friends and good old John Cabot. It's a nice place to make nice memories; the harbour side close to the city centre gives an air of nostalgia and serenity.
Amazing statue. Nice small part advising who John Cabot was and that he sailed and discovered North America from here. Quite nice little facts to know.
