    Staircase Beetles Nordhausen is a brand of the Jugendsozialwerk Nordhausen e.V.
    It consists of 21 bronze figures that wait for visitors on numerous stairs in the city. In NDH there are 260 stairs that are transformed into works of art in public spaces by the beetles.

    "Selina Marie" was installed as the third stair beetle in 2009.
    As the big sister, Selina watches over all the stair beetles in this city from Petersberg. A lovely child beetle, next to whom you can also take a short rest.
    The design was created by Anika Knuhr, who was just 9 years old at the time. I wonder if she still visits her beetle at the age of 25? The city of Nordhausen funded the statue.
    There are 24 other stair beetles, one of which is unfortunately missing.
