Of course you can also watch the hustle and bustle at the pier from here. Or in the restaurant. But rather the life on the Elbe and above all the bird life, which occurs here very numerous.

The bronze statue of a ferryman on a stone base was created by the sculptor Frijo Müller-Belcke. This impressive sculpture represents a traditional ferryman and symbolizes the important role of ferry services in the region. The statue is a popular photo subject and contributes to the cultural atmosphere of the ferry crossing.

Here the ferryman should already have bats ears to hear the call of the waiting man. Well, of course he is only stylized, because even his staff does not have the length to cross the Elbe here. In any case, he is well done, the ferryman. One should not forget that it is an ancient trade, because earlier people could not swim and were dependent on him.
