    Because it is beautifully designed and created based on a German piece of justice history.

      A detour to the city is always worthwhile ... and sometimes it is also very interesting if you go through it and say to yourself that you want to learn a little about the history of the city, then you come across quite a few stories, including those of the city Eberborg Fountain.

        The sculpture group by the Cloppenburg artist Peter Lehmann commemorates an event from 1929:
        An indebted farmer had his castrated boar - a so-called Eberborg - confiscated and sold to cover his tax debts. As a sign of solidarity in times of economic hardship, a group of farmers kidnapped the boar that had already been sold from the new owner's stable and returned it to its former owner. The successful protest movement was discussed in a special session in the state parliament. The penalties imposed for this burglary and breach of the peace were repealed.
