Onkel Willi und Felix, Bronze sculpture at Sternplatz, Lüdenscheid, Germany.

The bronze sculpture depicts a man wearing a coat and hat while holding a cigar, accompanied by his faithful dog.

Created by artist Waldemar Wien in 1978, the sculpture was officially unveiled to the public on April 3, 1981 at Sternplatz.

The sculpture represents the relationship between humans and their animal companions, reflecting the social fabric of Lüdenscheid's community.

The artwork underwent professional cleaning and wax preservation treatment in late summer 2007 to prevent patina formation on its surface.

The figure of a man and his dog has become a recognized symbol of Lüdenscheid, frequently photographed by visitors and residents.
