Because the two bronze boys are attached to the city and flood protection wall in such a way that they form a special robber ladder. A child sits on the wall and helps the friend who is still climbing to overcome the height distance. What a beautiful symbol of friendship! The former chairman of the Beautification Association Rolf Albring and his successor Michael Kemkes noted this in unison in their speeches. They also understood the sculpture as a symbol of friendship and help between the old and new board members. "This sculpture is another item on the list of good deeds," said Kemkes, praising the idea of his predecessor, whose wife was responsible for the naming.

The tower is part of the well-preserved medieval city fortifications of Rees. Absolutely worth seeing and by the way also instructive.

Rees Sculpture Park

Highlight • Monument

In the Sculpture Park, there is also the walk-in sundial on which you can serve as a pointer and with a little skill the time can read very accurately.

Everyday people in Rees.
52 figures at 17 locations. We discovered some, looked for others, but found them all.
The exhibition runs until June 27th.

still made it - to the everyday people in Rees.
Very nice figures, always a light wind on the Rhine promenade, so that the 30° became a bit more bearable.
Was a nice round!

the tour was not recorded with komoot, so here only in full with all breaks.

Everyday People 2023 in Rees. Here is the long-planned circular route through Rees with all its everyday people by Christel & Laura Lechner.
Last year the everyday people were in Nordkirchen and I took countless photos there too. Here in Rees there is an absolutely just as grandiose backdrop for this art. So I recognized some (everyday) people from Nordkirchen …

A small but nice town with a sculpture park and other sculptures scattered throughout the town. I especially liked the Rhinkieker with its view of the Rhine 👍.
But the promenade and the frog pond at the white tower are just beautiful.
The visit was worth it 😀

The everyday people have migrated!!
Last year they were based in Nordkirchen, now they are in Rees am Rhein.


At first I was afraid that they were the same characters, but no, many have been added.
Of course, the graces and the (reduced) coffee table could not be missing.
Wonderful new figures, like the woman with the rubber boots or …

A walk along the Rhine and through the town of Rees is always nice. Until June 27th, 2023 you can still marvel at the exhibition of everyday people 🚶‍♀️🚶🏼 (christel-lechner.de/alltagsmenschen-rees-2023). My nephews went looking for the various sculptures. There is a children's rally here (christel-lechner.de/_files/ugd/7391f3_768886557d49480a94e47721d497be65.pdf). As a reward, they got an ice cream voucher at the tourist information center 🍦.

A walk through historic Rees, from river to sculpture garden.

Today we took a beautiful walk through historic Rees, a city where history and nature beautifully intertwine. We started at the Rhine Promenade, where the water gently lapped against the quay and the sunlight sparkled on the waves. Here, the Rhine feels almost like a living guide, taking you through …
