Tips

ANGELIKA

November 24, 2023

There is no plaque on the monument about what it is supposed to represent. I found something about it on the Internet: It's about the Archangel Michael "New Testament

In the vision of the seer John (Rev 12.7 EU), the archangel Michael defeats the devil in the form of a dragon and pushes him down to earth:

“Then there was a battle in heaven; Michael and his angels rose to fight the dragon. The dragon and his angels fought, but they did not hold out and they lost their place in heaven. He was overthrown, the great dragon, the ancient serpent, who is called the Devil or Satan, and who deceives the whole world; the dragon was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him.”
"Dorfrunde Heustreu" - St. Saint Michael, who, according to a legend, is said to have protected Heustreu from Swedish troops during the Thirty Years' War.
