    BRONZE FIGURE »THE STEAL GUARD«

    The stealth guards were responsible for patrolling the streets of the city at night as quietly as possible. For this purpose, they were armed with old spears. They carried out their duties so »carefully« that they were neither seen nor did the stealth guards notice what was happening in the streets at night. It was primarily old, useless guys whose services were very dubious who volunteered for this service. They were therefore certain to be ridiculed by the population. After a short time, the stealth guards' service was discontinued. (Source: mer-rotenburg.de/infokarte-sehenswertes-kunst-und-kultur/#zwei_knaben)
