Pondering at the City Monuments City centre Review

There are enough monuments to ponder at in the Old Town:
starting with Johannes Gutenberg monument in Gutenberg Square
and Friedrich Schiller monument in Schiller Square
to a queer stone monument not far from Market Square (picture 5)...
These are some interesting monuments I have seen:
* Johannes Gutenberg, a great inventor;
* Friedrich Schiller, a great German poet;
* the Carnival monument;
* Little Bronze Soldier (I called it so);
* Queer Stone (a modern surrealistic monument, to make you think, too…).
