    "On November 11, 2007, the St. Martinus memorial was inaugurated in Weierhohl.
    The work of art created by Bärbel Dieckmann shows what is probably the best-known scene from the life of St. Martin, the patron saint of Olpe: the encounter with a beggar and the parting of the cloak. When asked what the bronze sculpture represents, the artist replied: A mercy that goes beyond the church and the city.
    The Olper sculpture is unique."
