In the garden of the monastery courtyard there is a small memorial for the poet Friedrich Hölderlin (born March 20, 1770 in Lauffen a. N., died June 7, 1843 in Tübingen).
The centerpiece of the memorial is a bronzed zinc relief with Hölderlin's bust (relief: sculptor Ernst Rau, casting: pewterer Wilhelm Pelagus), initiated and financed by the greats of Württemberg literature. From 1873 onwards, the relief adorned the entrance to the monastery steward's office building, which was considered to be Hölderlin's birthplace. The house was demolished in 1918, the relief was integrated into the memorial that was built at that time and supplemented with four lines from the poem "The Wanderer" (first version).

Hölderlin, a personality from our ranks

Hölderlin spent his childhood on the monastery farm next door. His father was the administrator of the monastery property there.
I therefore think the location of the monument is well chosen.
