Christ statue on the Friedensweg in Alfter

The "peace path" created by Wilhelm Maucher, who has since passed away - often also known by the nickname "Vorgebirgsrebell" - with inscribed stones on which he formulated the new ten commandments. The climb is short but steep. The complex is crowned by the statue of Christ, erected a few decades earlier and towering over the entire complex, who has spread his hands in blessing.

A beautifully designed statue of Christ (created by the Bonn sculptor Jakob Linden) spreads its arms at the upper end of the so-called "Friedensweg" in a blessing over the foothills to Bonn. On a board it says:
"This Christ the Redeemer statue was erected in 1945 as thanks for salvation from the great war needs. It was solemnly blessed and blessed on the first Sunday in October 1945 by the Reverend Dr. Daniels from the seminary in Bonn in the presence of 50-60 friends and acquaintances of our family The words of initiation were that when Christian signs appear in public life again, instead of pagan ungodly propaganda, there will again be a better future for all peoples and races. The unfortunate times we lived are the consequences of the apostasy of the peoples from Christ and his commandments. In this sense, this statue of Christ is intended to admonish and teach all visitors. "

With the commandment stones that Wilhelm Maucher had laid on his property in 1978 and that mark the "Peace Path", he summarized the entire experience of his life.
