A real eye-catcher awaits visitors to the renovated courtyard of Fulda recently: a statue in the middle of the renovated courtyard is the new eye-catcher. It shows the legendary rider and his horse. The bronze sculpture comes from the sculptor Valerie Otte from Berlin. The rider deliberately stands at ground level next to his horse. The viewer should be able to imagine what it might have been like back then.
