In Augsburg, there is a church that has these cute little Cherubs across the front near the altar (I think it was a Lutheran Church ~ do they call it an alter too?). I just remember as I am walking through looking at these, my German Mom calling me over to one specific Cherub. She started giggling and pointed out it’s junk. Too funny. I thought to myself (and I may have even said it aloud) that if those were here in the US, someone would probably try & steal it.
When my parents went to visit the following year, they came back & told me that someone had in fact stole it. The entire set survived all those centuries and some putz had to go and steal it…
…and no, it didn’t manage to find it’s way in my luggage…
