Summary
| Description |
English: Archangel Michael Memorial (Michaelsbrunnen) at the market square of Mettingen, Kreis Steinfurt, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is listed as a cultural heritage monument.
Deutsch: Erzengel-Michael-Figur auf dem Michaelsbrunnen (auch Michaelsdenkmal) in Mettingen, Kreis Steinfurt, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Deutschland. Das Denkmal wurde im Jahr 1902 errichtet. Die 2,05 Meter hohe Figur des Erzengels, des Schutzpatrons der Deutschen, ist eine Galvanoplastik, hergestellt von der Galvanoplastischen Kunstanstalt Geislingen a. d. Steige. Die komplette Brunnenanlage steht seit 1984 als "Objekt der Volksfrömmigkeit" unter Denkmalschutz (Inventar-Nr. A 05). Die im Lauf der Zeit erheblich beschädigte Michael-Figur wurde jedoch 1988 anlässlich der 900-Jahr-Feier der Gemeinde Mettingen durch einen Nachguss ersetzt. Diesen schuf der Borghorster Künstler Otto Breuing, den Bronzeguss besorgte die Kunstgießerei Anft, Drensteinfurt. Das Original befindet sich seither im Inneren der St.-Agatha-Kirche.
