    The sculpture "Die Tauzieher", which the sculptor Prof. Karl-Henning Seemann, born in Wismar, designed in 1985/87, has stood on the Marienkirche tower since 2005.

    The representation symbolizes the common struggle for the best solution.
    “All stretching together. When de een goes off, de anne up'n noors ”, Karl-Henning Seemann remarked about his“ tug of war ”.

    The sculpture “Die Tauzieher” (The Tug-of-War) on the Marienkirchturm in Wismar was created by the sculptor Prof. Karl-Henning Seemann, born in Wismar, in the years 1985/87. This plastic offers viewers a lot of scope for their own interpretations. It symbolizes the common struggle for the best solution. As the artist himself noted: "All pull together. If one lets go, the other falls on their nose." The sculpture has stood in front of the St. Marien church tower since 2005 and is an expression of movement and strength.
