I fixed that yesterday and here are the photos. The first one is a full-length photo of the statue and the second is a close-up of the inscription. The statue stands on the bridge over one branch of the creek that flows behind my house. The stream\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s name is the <em>Fl\u00c3\u00b6tbach<\/em> (Flute Stream), but of course it is the Shrierbach where it is adjacent to my property line. \ud83d\ude42 The inscription is kind of hard to make out but it says &#8220;<em>Flurbereinigung, Kemnath, 1975-1990<\/em>&#8221; in the original German. \u00a0 This translates to &#8220;Land Reform, Kemnath, 1975-1990&#8243;\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0The statue was placed to commemorate the German Land Reform that occurred between 1975-1990. The statue is obviously much older than 1975, but I asked at the Stadt and nobody could tell me where it originally came from. I am going to try to ask the local Historical society folks when I run into one of them.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1258\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Flotbach-Nepomuk-Statue.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1258\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1258  \" title=\"Flotbach Nepomuk Statue\" src=\"http:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Flotbach-Nepomuk-Statue-300x285.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"285\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Flotbach-Nepomuk-Statue-300x285.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Flotbach-Nepomuk-Statue.jpg 353w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1258\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">John of Nepomuk Guarding or Blessing the Fl\u00c3\u00b6tbach<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wrote a post about Saint John of Nepomuk a week or so ago and at the time I wanted to post a picture of the statue near my house but had been too lazy to stop on my way&#8230; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/2011\/04\/update-saint-john-of-nepomuk\/\">Continue Reading &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1258,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1226,1223,152],"tags":[157,155,153,85,154,156,190],"class_list":["post-1257","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-non-historical-asides","category-pre-modern-warfare","category-roman-catholic-history","tag-church-figures","tag-church-history","tag-john-of-nepomuk","tag-middle-ages","tag-roman-catholic","tag-saints","tag-statuary"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1257","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1257"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1257\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1258"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1257"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1257"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.military-history.us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1257"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
