    Legend has it that Countess Palatine Genoveva is the wife of Count Palatine Siegfried. The couple lives together at Simmern Castle until one day Siegfried has to go on crusade. The sculpture, created in the Nietze-Mühle Brohltal sculpture workshop in 2013, depicts the Countess Palatine in her professional attire. Genoveva is holding a model of the castle in her hand, an image of the medieval Genovevaburg.
    You can find out more about the legend and the person of Genoveva in the Eifel Museum in the Genovevaburg.
    The statue made of sandstone was donated by the St. Matthias Brotherhood in Mayen.
