Tips

Andrea und Huskys 🐺

July 8, 2025

This carved wooden bench on the Gottesgaber Christkindlweg is called the "Glück auf" bench because of the greeting engraved on the backrest. The artist himself, Raik Zenger from the Düben Heath in northern Saxony, called his work "Horník," or "Miner." To the left of the miner's symbol of "hammer and pick," the greeting "Zdar Buh," or "Good luck," is also written on the backrest in Czech.
