Memorial to Wildenbruch

When this monument disappeared in 1976, the principal reason was doubtless its inscription: “I fight not in order to attack but to defend.” It was thanks to a local society that this sculpture of an antique warrior in honour of dramatist Ernst von Wildenbruch (1845–1909) was crafted by Richard Engelmann, an artist of Jewish descent who taught at Weimar School of Art. The monument was one of Engelmann’s largest pieces of sculpture.
