SCULPTURE DOG:
In Buxtehude,
a city with Dutch settlers, bells were already rung with a rope when elsewhere they were still struck with a hammer. The bells were called "dogs" and the rope soon looked like a tail, so the ringing turned into barking, and that's why dogs in Buxtehude bark with their tails today.
The sculpture is located in the Bahnhofstraße in Buxtehude.
