Bergmannskuh, Bronze monument in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany
The Bergmannskuh stands as a bronze sculpture representing a goat, positioned prominently in the industrial region of North Rhine-Westphalia.
During the 19th and early 20th centuries, miners in the Ruhr region kept goats to supplement their modest income with milk production.
The term Bergmannskuh, meaning miner's cow in German, reflects the strong connection between mining communities and goat keeping traditions.
The monument serves as a geographical reference point and meeting location for visitors exploring the industrial heritage of the region.
This sculpture commemorates the role of domestic goats in sustaining mining families through their ability to produce milk in urban conditions.
