The Statue of Saladin ({{lang-ar|تمثال صلاح الدين الأيوبي}}) is an oversize equestrian bronze statue depicting the Kurdish[1][2] Ayyubid Sultan Saladin located in front of the 11th century Citadel of Damascus in the Ancient City of Damascus in Damascus, Syria. The statue was designed by Syrian sculptor Abdallah al-Sayed. It was unveiled by the then Syrian president Hafez Assad in 1993, marking the 800th anniversary of Saladin's death.[3]

The bronze statue represents Saladin's victory at the Battle of Hittin, with him seated proudly and triumphantly on his horse accompanied by two swordsmen with Renaud de Chatillon and Guy de Lusignagn whom he captured at the battle walking behind him on foot while the crown of the Kingdom of Jerusalem lies on the floor.[4]
