At the beginning of the 1920s, a movement arose in the city to erect a memorial commemorating the Rhenish Jäger Battalion, stationed in Wetzlar until 1877. In 1923, the site in front of the Hausertor Tunnel was agreed upon. In July of that year, Prof. Fritz Klimsch, commissioned by the Monument Committee as the executing artist, traveled from Berlin to inspect the site. The sculptor, who came from a Frankfurt family of artists and had been appointed professor in Charlottenburg in 1921, was one of the most sought-after sculptors of memorials since the turn of the 20th century. As an allegory of the hunters, Klimsch designed a 1.75 m high stag, cast in bronze and placed on a 1 m high shell limestone base. This base was manufactured by the Wetzlar building contractor Johann Georg Müller. https://www.deutsche-digitale-bibliothek.de/item/CV5Y7TI2RQTT75TCW6Z3CWUHXW6C4JUI

The monument was erected in memory of the Rhenish Jäger Battalion, which was stationed in Wetzlar until 1877. The Frankfurt-born sculptor Professor Fritz Klimsch created the monument in 1923 based on the battalion's coat of arms and as an allegory of the hunters. The 1.75-meter-tall bronze stag sits enthroned on a shell limestone base, which was created by the Wetzlar building contractor Johann Georg Müller.

Great memorial and remembrance of the dead
