Peter Lehmann (1921-1995)
Otto-Wels-Platz
The 10-part herd of pigs by the Bremen sculptor Peter Lehmann was installed in 1990 on Otto-Wels-Platz and, according to the special wishes of the donor Elisabeth Tengelmann (née Schweisfurth), is intended to appeal primarily to children. To this day, the boar with its three sows and six piglets invites young and old to climb, play and take a break.
