"Die meisten Plastiken in Vogelsang – Fackelträger, Der deutsche Mensch und das Sportlerrelief – stammen von Willy Meller. Während die Holzplastik Der deutsche Mensch 1945 verschwunden ist, sind die beiden anderen Plastiken – teilweise beschädigt – heute erhalten.

Das Sportlerrelief (1938) aus roter Lava an der Stirnwand der Ehrentribühne ist stark verwittert und weist Schäden durch Einschusslöcher auf."
