Statue near the church of St. Michaelis |

There is a statue on busy Ludwig-Erhardt street in Hamburg's city centre. Located near the church of St. Michaelis, it depicts a little woman holding a basket on her right arm, while she offers spectators a lemon with her left hand. As well as Hummel, who you can see at Hummel well Zitronenjette (lemon Jette) used to be one of Hamburg's original residents. She lived in the city from 1841-1916, was attacked while on the streets more than once, and sold lemons to the people. In her final days she was looked after at a nursing home. The sculptor Hansjörg Wagner built the bronze statue in 1986. Review © 2009, Wcities |
