Memorial Hansaplatz

In this park at the Hansaring near where the klingelputz was there stands a sculpture of a jewish woman with dead child.

This sculpture is made by the dutch artist Mari Andriessen. In Holland there are many war sculptures made by Mari Andriessen. This sculpture was placed in Cologne in 1959 next to the Gestapo monument. This same sculpture also stands in the Dutch city of Enschede. The city of Cologne bought the second one and placed it here.
