Dear Marion and Edgar,

I´m sorry to tell you, this is one more of the czernowitz´ myths... This a pedestal of a Schiller monument, but not the one which stood in front for the theatre. If you look at other photos on "Gruss aus Czernowitz" you can see, that they are quite similar, but there is a difference at the base. This is the pedestal of the Schiller monument which stood in the inner courtyard of the "Deutsches Haus" / German House and was removed after the "Heim ins Reich" policy was executed. There is a photo of that Schiller on "Gruss aus Czernowitz" but -as always in such situations- I did not find it know.

All the best
Benjamin

>> Dear all,

>> Visiting Czernowitz in September 2013 our guide took us the granite base of the former Schiller-monument that used to stand in front of the theatre before young romanian nationalists carried it away in 1920. Schiller has not been found again - but the base was taken to the small park in (former) Maria-Theresiengasse (behind "Deutsches Haus") - where it still is. Nobody seems to care.
