Tips

Very nicely made figures, which, according to a legend, remind of the rescue of the inhabitants during the 30-year war. The 12-year-old girl was awakened by the restlessness of her pigs and many residents were able to flee before the enemy soldiers arrived.

The figures invite children in particular to climb and play.

This is the legendary pig market, and these bronze sculptures commemorate its preservation during the Thirty Years' War.
