Tips
The bronze statue of the tire cutter, made by Gerald Hildenbrand, is reminiscent of the extinct profession of the tire cutter. Wooden barrel hoops were made from hazelnut bushes, or more rarely from birch or linden. These were mounted on the barrel without the use of nails and were used where iron could not be used.eberbach.de/pb/site/Eberbach/get/documents_E2104734087/eberbach/PB5Documents/PromenadenprospektWeb11_11%282%29.pdf
