Kagmanden, Wooden statue in Tønder, Denmark
The Kagmanden statue stands on the marketplace of Tønder, displaying the figure of a bailiff carved from a substantial oak trunk.
The original sculpture from 1699 now resides in the Tønder Museum, while the current statue was installed in 1993 for the city's 750th anniversary.
The statue represents a historical punishment site where offenders faced public sanctions before being expelled from the municipality of Tønder.
The statue location serves as a central meeting point during the annual Christmas market, which runs from early November through December.
Eight men and six horses were required to transport the heavy oak trunk used to create the statue's main body section.
