The Jerg Ratgeb Sculpture Path is a sculpture path in Herrenberg in Baden-Württemberg . The sculpture path is intended to keep the memory of Jerg Ratgeb alive, a painter who created the Herrenberg Altar , among other things , and peasant leader in the German Peasant War of the 16th century.

Project description

With the initiator and curator, the art and cultural historian Helge Bathelt, a group of citizens from Herrenberg was formed in 2012, which together planned the sculpture trail, initially with 16 works. They were supported by the city of Herrenberg, local and regional companies, craft businesses, private sponsors and lenders. The sculpture path forms an artistic axis of supraregional importance, which leads from the train station through the old town, past the Herrenberg collegiate church to the ruins of the Herrenberg castle and is now supposed to include 25 works.

21 works by 18 artists were presented to the public at the official opening on May 5, 2015.

Ratgeb's name is also symbolic of the futile attempt to bring about social change through violence.
