Tünnes und Schäl -
Zwei Kölner Originale
Ganz in der Nähe des Alter Markt befindet sich die Kirche St. Martin. Direkt im Hof vor dem Eingang stößt man auf die Bronzefiguren der beiden wohl populärsten Gestalten Kölns "Tünnes und Schäl". Den Anstoß zu ihrer Schaffung gab Joseph (Jupp) Engels, ein begeisterter Kölner und Architekt, der durch sein Engagement für Köln und dessen Brauchtum mit dem Kölner Architekturpreis geehrt wurde und in der ganzen Stadt seine Spuren hinterließ.
Bei Tünnes und Schäl handelt es sich um zwei legendäre Figuren aus dem Hänneschen - Puppentheater der Stadt. Die dicke Knollennase von Tünnes ist schon ganz golden gerieben, denn ein kräftiger Griff an die Nase bringt Glück!

Two originals Cologne
Very near the Old Market is the Church of St. Martin. Directly in front of the entrance courtyard we find the bronze figures of the two most popular forms of Cologne "Tünnes and peeling." The impetus for its creation was Joseph (Jupp) Engels, Cologne and an enthusiastic architect, who was honored by his commitment to the Customs and Cologne with the Cologne Architecture Prize and left its mark throughout the city.
In Tünnes and peel are two legendary figures from the Hänneschen - Puppet theater in town. The thick bulbous nose of golden Tünnes is already quite rubbed, because a strong grip on the nose for good luck!
