We?ll begin at Gutenbergplatz which is named for our city?s most famous son and which has been enhanced with a bronze statue commemorating him since 1837. It was fashioned from a design by H.W. Bissens, a pupil of Thorvaldsen, and created by Crozatier in Paris. The bas reliefs in the pedestal portray the discovery and practice of printing books. In May 2008 the statue has been removed for restoration.
