The oak wood figures are 2.80 meters high, 600 kilograms and measure on average about 70 centimeters. They stand on a secure foundation, a pedestal and are secured with an iron bar. This also protects them from rising damp. The seats were also carefully selected. "While the Goldmarie stands in the sun and is flooded with sunlight, the Pechmarie is rather in the shade"

The large, solid wooden figure of Goldmarie stands next to the Vogelherd cave and smiles.

In the fairy tale of Frau Holle, Goldmarie is the pretty, hard-working girl who is despised by her stepmother. When she comes to Mrs. Holle's kingdom, she is friendly and does all the work without complaining. For this, Ms. Holle showers her with gold as a thank you.
