That would be nice: a magic word and the table is set, the donkey stretches and the club jumps out of the sack.
For the redesign of Prager Strasse as a pedestrian boulevard in the 1970s in the GDR, the sculptor Karl Schönherr (1925-1981) created the figure of the youngest brother on the donkey and the little table-deck-you, who was given his fair punishment by means of a stick to the fraudulent landlord leaves. And if they have not died yet ...
For a few years the figure stood a little to the side behind the site fence, now it is back at the beginning of Prager Strasse. Only the excavation (the "Wiener Loch") is still unchanged ...? No, after what feels like 15 years the hole is finally built up !!
