      The Stendal Roland was built in 1525 and is one of the largest Rolands in Germany. For the upcoming 500th anniversary of the Roland, the city decided to have a bronze statue erected. This stands in front of the Altmark Museum and represents the construction of the Roland in 1525.

        In front of the court arbor (today 'coffee cult') on the market is a stone Roland figure. This figure is a copy of the 1974 sculpture of 1525, which is kept in the Altmark Museum. The 7.80 m high standing figure is equipped with plate armor, a shield with the Brandenburg eagle and a shouldered sword.

            The Stendal Roland was erected in 1525 and forms a distinctive market ensemble with the third largest Roland in Germany, the town hall with its Renaissance gables and the impressive towers of the St. Mary's Church.

              At the corner of the courtroom of the town hall stands the Roland from 1525 in a faithful copy from 1974. Like most Rolands, the Stendaler is also depicted as a knight. He wears a Renaissance corrugated armor, the shape and decorative elements of which correspond to the fashion of the time. His attributes include a sword, a symbol of power, in his right hand and a shield in his left hand. The shield shows the complete Brandenburg eagle and two jagged squares, probably an older municipal coat of arms. On his head, the Roland wears a pommel with a plume of feathers behind it.
