    Perhaps the most famous landmark of the Hanseatic city is the Bremen Town Musicians. A bronze statue by Gerhard Marcks has stood in the heart of Bremen since 1953, commemorating the popular fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm. According to the story, a donkey, a dog, a cat, and a rooster set off for the Weser city in search of a better life.

    The most well-known representation of the city musicians is the bronze sculpture of the sculptor Gerhard Marcks of 1951, which is awarded with international fame. It stands on the west side of the town hall.

    The Bremen Town Musicians is the title of a folk tale, which was recorded by the Brothers Grimm.
    The monument stands in front of the left front side of the Bremen Town Hall and was erected in 1953. The bronze sculpture is a listed building and is the secret landmark of the city.
    When you touch the front legs of the donkey, a wish comes true.
