Head, or simply "Nischel".

He always looks a little grim and has seen a lot in the meantime. The Nischl (the Saxon word for "head") is the city's landmark. Between 1971 and 1989, it was mainly the backdrop for socialist celebrations, but today the 40-tonne colossus is Chemnitz's most popular photo motif, a meeting point for skaters and probably the heaviest decoration for concerts at the Kopp.
