    The memorial plaque commemorates famous people who worked here: Magister Carl Gottlieb Hering, as deputy headmaster of the school around 1800, wrote an important piano method and composed, among other things, the well-known children's songs "Hopp, hopp, hopp, Pferdchen lauf Galopp" and "Morgen, Kinder, wird's was geben." His sons were also very successful: Karl Eduard, like his father, as a composer and music teacher, and his brother, Dr. Konstantin Hering, as a natural scientist, physician, and writer. He introduced homeopathy to the USA. oschatz-erleben.com/campingplatz/1-neumarkt/9-alte-stadtschule
