Hiking

In a life-size bronze sculpture by Ludwig Cauer (1866 - 1947): two English colonial soldiers fight over a helmet full of water. The monument was supposed to commemorate the war against the Boers in South Africa (1899 - 1902) in London, but was rejected after its completion as not heroic enough and returned. Viewed in this way, it can still be understood today as an anti-war mark.

A beautiful bronze sculpture in front of the so-called "milk house".
