The sackman was a porter, he carried the grain on his back from the ship to the fruit store. That's almost 500 meters. They were day laborers who checked every day to see if there was work for them. In winter, the Sackers were usually unemployed.
The cat is the mascot of the sacks, the cats killed the mice that ate the grain.

Diez is always worth a trip, whether to the Säckerbrunnen, where you can stop off, or to the old town with its delicious ice cream parlors and old buildings worth seeing.
