About
In front of the Southern gate of the Evangelical Church there is the statues of Bishop Georg Daniel Teutsch (1817-1893), sculpted in brass in 1899 by Adolf von Donndorf.
G. D. Teutsch was a bishop and historian, honorary member of ASTRA Association.
The monument depicts him standing, in his sacerdotal habiliment, holding the Bible in his left hand and with his right hand leaning on a small column on which there are documents symbolizing the medieval rights enjoyed by the Saxons.
