    (Translated by Google) Iron Chancellor backed by the army and industry The "Iron Chancellor" was made of bronze by the sculptor Johann Röttger in 1899. The pedestal of the monument is held by two allegorical figures: "Army" [a man with a sword and fascia (lictor beams)] and "Industry" [a woman with a hammer, trampling foot anchor]. "Worker and Peasant Woman" in the German Style. A little further, on Luther Square, there is a monument to another collector of German lands - Emperor Wilhelm I. Nearby, the largest neo-Gothic church of St. John (Johanneskirche). (Original) Железный канцлер опирающийся на армию и промышленность «Железный канцлер» выполнен из бронзы скульптором Иоганном Роттгером (Johann Röttger) в 1899. Пьедестал памятника удерживают две фигуры-аллегории: «Армия» [мужчина с мечем и с фасцией (ликторскими пучками)] и «Промышленности» [женщина с молотком, попирающая ногой якорь]. «Рабочий и крестьянка» на немецкий манер. Чуть подальше на площади Лютера размещен памятник другому собирателю земель немецких — императору Вильгельму I. Рядом крупнейшая в городе неоготическая церковь св. Иоанна (Johanneskirche).

    (Translated by Google) Lots of beautiful statues and monuments. Unfortunately, some of the people sat permanently in front of the statues. (Original) Viele schöne Staturen und Denkmäler. Leider saßen teilweise die Leute dauerhaft direkt vor den Staturen.

    (Translated by Google) It is unbearable that this disgrace is still going on. Now demolish and create a memorial for the horrors of German history, which Bismarck also initiated. (Original) Unerträglich, dass dieses Schandmahl noch immer steht. Abriss jetzt und Gedenkort schaffen für die Grauen Deutscher Geschichte, die auch von Bismarck angeleiert wurden.

  • 1/5 Walter Z. 11 months ago on Google • 19 reviews
    Overall quite disappointing as I didn't find any bitemark pegs here. I then thought about it a lot, since it is a memorial. At this point I would also like to point out the incorrect spelling. “Bite” and “Mark” are spelled differently. I'm sorry too. I also didn't find the green color of the monument particularly appealing, please repaint it at the next opportunity. The wing figure attached to the rider was also irritating. I didn't know until now that there were women who had wings. Unfortunately I have to complain about it as a mistake and it should be removed soon.

    It's like crossing the Q parallel. At first glance, the monument is not noticeable.
