    Not far from the Eisfeld Castle, in front of which the Otto Ludwig monument created by Otto Lang stands, is the Otto Ludwig Garden, in the middle of which is a garden house with a small memorial for the poet Otto Ludwig. In front of the garden house is a second Otto Ludwig memorial, created by sculptor Karl Röhrig, who was born in Eisfeld in 1886.

      Otto Ludwig was a German writer and poet:

      Notice
      (1831)


      Tell me, said the brittle one,
      What kind of flowers are they?
      Here at the little window?
      And tell me quickly.


      Didn't you guess?
      And you usually guess so quickly.
      It's the cold winter,
      A fellow in love.


      And how past it whizzes
      With a sudden rush of wind,
      He writes on all the windows
      The sweetheart's name.


      The long icy cones
      Are his pen and pen;
      If only I could decipher them,
      The colorfully intertwined writing!


      It grabs me deep in my heart
      The violence of jealousy;
      It's you, you're his darling!
      Otherwise you would be so cold!

        Otto Ludwig was born in Eisfeld in 1813. In his honor, a memorial to this great poet, musician, literary theorist, playwright, and Shakespearean scholar was established in the late neoclassical garden house, which was built in 1814 and still stands today.
