Wächterfiguren

Sculpture
The two sandstone guardian figures (16th century) weighing around 1.5 tons depict knights armed with swords and halberds.
The figures probably once stood in the garden of the syndicate courtyard. It is not clear exactly what function they had. The passageway Carl-Hatzky-Weg was only created in modern times. The two figures gave the "Ritterstraße" its name.
