This is the Figerative Public Sculpture of the 'Obersielminger Gänse' (Geese of Obersielmingen) located at the intersection of Lange Straße and Osterstraße in Sielmingen, Germany, Baden-Württemberg.

The sculpture of the two geese was created by Axel Döhler in 1963.
It was restored in 2004 by Thomas Schuster fundamentally. The Sielminger citizens had donated for this purpose.

The Sielminger citizens are called 'Gees' (geese). So that's the reason for this sculpture.

The size of each statue is around 1 meter.
There's a plaque with details.
