    At the north-east end of the Music Concours is one of four exact copies of Rietschel's original Goethe–Schiller Monument (German: Goethe-Schiller-Denkmal) in Weimar, Germany, which were commissioned by German-Americans in the United States for the Goethe–Schiller monuments in San Francisco (1901), Cleveland (1907), Milwaukee (1908), and Syracuse (1911). It incorporates Ernst Rietschel's 1857 bronze double statue of Johann Wolfgang Goethe (1749–1832) and Friedrich Schiller (1759–1805), who are probably the two most revered figures in German literature. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goethe%E2%80%93Schiller_Monument
