When looking at the bronze sculpture "The Motherly One" in front of Niebüll Town Hall, the unusual posture is immediately noticeable. Sculptor Waldemar Grzimek deliberately moved away from a lifelike depiction of the body. The focus is more on the tension of the body, which is created by the optical reference points of shoulders, arms and legs. The lower legs spread outwards, the upper body leaning forward and the arms crossed in front of the chest follow geometric and analytical rules. They visually pull the woman's torso together and radiate a protective power. The artist did not want to show an ideal woman, but rather to work out special features. The fact that the body appears a little distorted and displaced as a result underlines his intention. Data on the work: Waldemar Grzimek: The Motherly One (1963, bronze) Hauptstraße 44, 25899 Niebüll Route planner: 54.78613, 8.82646 https://sh-kunst.de/waldemar-grzimek-die-muetterliche/?taxonomy=orte&terms=591

The department store has (almost) everything your heart desires... even souvenirs. But also clothes, stationery, etc.

Designed as an “English Park” – a park modeled on the great outdoors – Malmesbury Park owes its name to the partnership between the cities of Niebüll and Malmesbury in England. Here you will find ecologically valuable elements such as a flower meadow, bushes and ponds. Bats have their hunting grounds here and can be easily observed at dusk. Hedges also serve as valuable habitats for a variety of creatures. The park is not only a local recreation area, but also suitable for smaller cultural events. https://www.niebuell.de/media/custom/2435_1715_1.PDF?1679588422

Waldemar Grzimek (1918 –1984) created the sculpture “The Motherly” in 1963 (bronze, granite base) from various basic geometric shapes. Shoulders, arms and legs are designated as special optical reference points. They generate a high degree of vital tension and integrate the sensual physical charisma of the figure into a higher, general context. https://www.niebuell.de/media/custom/2435_1715_1.PDF?1679588422
