    The most well-known representation of the city musicians is the bronze sculpture of the sculptor Gerhard Marcks of 1951, which is awarded with international fame. It stands on the west side of the town hall.

    The Bremen Town Musicians is the title of a folk tale, which was recorded by the Brothers Grimm.
    The monument stands in front of the left front side of the Bremen Town Hall and was erected in 1953. The bronze sculpture is a listed building and is the secret landmark of the city.
    When you touch the front legs of the donkey, a wish comes true.

    The Bremen Town Musicians are probably the most famous landmark of the Hanseatic city. A bronze statue by Gerhard Marcks in the heart of Bremen has been reminiscent of the popular fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm since 1953. According to the story, donkeys, dogs, cats and roosters once made their way to the city on the Weser to find a better life here.
