Hiking
The monument is located on the Neumarkt near the Frauenkirche and features a modern, understated design: Kästner sits on a bench, looking out at the surroundings – as if observing the urban life he often described in his works.
It primarily honors his significance as an author of children's books such as "Emil and the Detectives," as well as his critical, humanistic stance towards society and politics.
