The bust of Heinrich Herrmann Christian Möller stands on a high pedestal. It was erected in 1873 on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the 1848 survey of Schleswig-Holstein.
The person depicted - Uwe Jens Lornsen, is referred to as the "first martyr of the Schleswig-Holstein cause". He was not a political victim, but he was an advocate of independence.
Uwe Jens Lornsen was born on November 18, 1793 in Keitum on Sylt. He was a lawyer and official in the Danish government. Through his writing on the constitutional work in Schleswigholstein, he became the pioneer of a united and independent Schleswig-Holstein. He died on February 13, 1838 in Pressy on Lake Geneva.sh-kunst.de/denkmal-fuer-uwe-jens-lornsen

The White Bridge is next to the railway bridge, the city theater, the Lornsenden Monument and the historic town hall to the landmarks of Rendsburg. The ever-rebuilt bridge spans an old oath of fire in the city park as a link between the Neuwerk and the Old Town since the mid-19th century.
The new building was long controversial because of the high cost of the damp city. The former mayor Andreas Breitner had the old White Bridge closed in November 2011 as dilapidated. The approximately 45-meter-long new building is a construction of steel pillars and substructure as well as railing and floor made of tropical wood. He has in contrast to the old White Bridge 16 lights in their soil. The predecessor was a pure wooden construction, as documented by the last old photo I had set.

The park, laid out in the 1950s and 1960s, and the surrounding area were equipped with 26 sculptures by well-known artists from 1987 to 2000 on the initiative of the Rendsburger Kunstverein, representing very different positions in modern sculpture. The city park, which was renamed "Hans-Heinemann-Park" in this context, commemorates the Rendsburg painter, art patron and founder of the cultural association Hans Heinemann (1915-2002). Various commemorative plaques and busts also remind of other club members. The sculptures and works of art convey a very special atmosphere specific to this park in the interplay with the seasonal flowering shrubs and flowers.sh-kunst.de/werke/stadtpark-rendsburg
