This is to document the monument formerly in the City Park (Stadtpark) of his native town in memory of King Christopher of Scandinavia (Christopher III of Denmark). After WW2 it had replaced a Nazi monument installed there by Hitler in 1934, and it was thus subjected to a lot of graffiti and vandalism. To mark the 600th anniversary in 2016 of his birth the plaque from the monument was moved to an exterior wall of Neumarkt Palace, next to this church. There is no free image of it yet (2022) in that location.
