Der Frieden bewahrt das Leben

Imagine standing here and feeling the whispers of history in the gentle breeze. Look around, you might catch a glimpse of the Anhaltisches Theater to the west, the cultural hub of the city. But right here, before you, stands the sculpture 'The Peace Carries Life'. Created in 1977 by Bernd Göbel, this piece captures the fragile and enduring essence of peace. At the time, Germany was still divided, living under the shadow of the Cold War. This sculpture serves as a poignant reminder of how delicate peace can be and the importance of nurturing it. As you take in the details of the sculpture, you might feel the calm it emanates, preserved over the decades. This artwork not only connects space but also time, reminding us of the vital need to cherish and protect peace.
