Meckermann, Stone statue in Langenberg Park, Bocholt, Germany.
The stone figure depicts a disapproving citizen with a raised chin, accompanied by a goat and cat at its feet.
The original 1938 stone figure by Eugen Severt was destroyed in 1945, leading to Hermann Schlatt creating a new version in 1951.
The statue represents a local guardian figure who reminds visitors about proper behavior in the park through inscriptions in local Bocholt dialect.
After the 2011 theft of the metal statue, local newspaper funded a stone replacement to prevent future metal theft incidents.
The figure serves as the mascot for a newspaper column in Bocholter-Borkener Volksblatt discussing daily events in Bocholt.
