Guided Story
Take a moment to look at the joyous expressions on the children in this relief. Can you feel their delight? These sculptures not only tell stories but also bear witness to history. Imagine the Heinrich-Schütz-Haus that once stood here. The facade pieces you see were salvaged and reinstalled from that historic building. The children almost seem ready to leap off the wall and dance around the Neumarkt, just behind you. Artworks like this relief endure through the ages, reminding us of the carefree spirit of another era. If you listen closely, you might even imagine the Renaissance music that set their feet to dancing.
