    I think the sculpture in front of the Emden Sparkasse is very popular. The so-called Delftspucker stands for the good-for-nothing, who corn around 1900 at this point and supply themselves with Emder Gossip. To ensure that they do not run out of spit, they mix the chewing tobacco into a viscous pulp and spit the "Slaatje" into Delft. Mmmmmh, delicious, and that's exactly why I count the Delftspucker among the top sights in Emden.

    When were the Delft spitters erected in Emden?

    The two Delft spitters Joke Rinne and Hinnerk de Vries, created by Hans-Christian Petersen from Esens, were donated by citizens of Emden in 2018 and 2017 respectively and cast in bronze

    The sculptures are reminiscent of the old men who used to meet here to chat and spit chewing tobacco into the water💦.
    Great, funny photo opportunity in the old inland port of Emden.📸🤗
