On the market place rises the monument of one of the most famous sons of the city - Friedrich Rückert.
The poet and orientalist, whose birthplace is on the southeast corner of the market square, has been surveying the hustle and bustle on the lively square since 1890. The monument was created by the architect Friedrich Ritter von Thiersch and the sculptor Wilhelm von Rühmann. At the foot of the bronze rump, there are allegorical figures from his works, "Harnessed Sonnets" and "Brahmin Wisdom".

Friedrich Rückert, whose death will be 155 years in 2021, is undoubtedly one of the most important German-language poets of Franconian provenance. In addition, with his numerous, literarily unrivaled translations from a total of 44 languages, he is also one of the most important mediators between the literatures of the Orient and the Occident in Europe. In addition, in his largely unpublished late work, he had astutely predicted many of the ecological and social consequences of the emerging industrialization as early as the middle of the century before last.
