Another bronze sculpture by Frijo Müller-Belecke shows a group building a dike with a cart and a tow rope. The group at the original location gives a good impression of the hard work of building a dike in earlier times. The sculpture was erected in 1996 as a donation from the water and soil associations. In 2010, the front figure was sawn off just above the boots and stolen. In April 2012, the original state was restored with a new cast.
