    At the gates of Bad Oeynhausen, the Weser rafters have been commemorated. Rafter is an extinct profession. Not only the Weser was used until the 1960s as a means of transport to transport with the help of the flow logs from A to B. The task of the raftsmen was to bind the logs together with willow branches and to launch the resulting raft with up to nine logs in a controlled way to the timber handling stations.

      The monument reminds of the hard work of the raftsmen.
      But they also brought a lot of money to the town during this time.
      Set up at the tributary of the Werre in the "Große Weserbogen" near Bad Oeynhausen.

        Nice sculpture that reminds of the hard work used to be.
