The central image on this stein depicts St. Anne’s Column, consecrated in 1706 and located in front the Innsbruck town hall, built to commemorate the withdrawal of the last Bavarian troops from the Tyrol on St. Anne’s Day on 26 July 1703 as part of the War of the Spanish Succession. Side images include the Goldenes Dachl (Golden Roof), named for its 2,657 fire-gilded copper roof tiles and completed in 1500 by Emperor Maximilian I to mark his wedding to Bianca Maria Sforza, as well as the statue of Andreas Hofer (1767-1810), a Tyrolean freedom fighter and national hero.
“WEKARA” is an acronym for Wilhelm E. Krumeich aus Ransbach, a Westerwald finishing shop and distributor.
