            Deutschland, Hamburg, Ruine der Hauptkirche St.Nikolai, 1943 im II. Weltkrieg zerstört.

The bronze figure "Trial", created by Edith Breckwoldt in 2004, is located in the apse of the former south aisle and is dedicated to the memorial site of the former Sandbostel main camp, which was located 60 kilometres west of Hamburg and was one of the largest German prisoner-of-war camps from 1939 to 1945. More than 50,000 people died there, including around 10,000 prisoners from the Neuengamme concentration camp. The base of the sculpture is made of bricks from the foundations of the barracks, which were collected on the camp grounds by schoolchildren from Sandbostel. The artist inscribed a bronze plaque with a quote attributed to Dietrich Bonhoeffer:
"No man in the whole world can change the truth. One can only seek it, find it and serve it. The truth is in every place. (Source: Wikipedia)

Die Bronzefigur "Prüfung", 2004 von Edith Breckwoldt geschaffen, ist in der Apsis des ehemaligen südlichen Seitenschiffs aufgestellt und der Gedenkstätte des ehemaligen Stammlagers Sandbostel gewidmet, das, 60 km westlich von Hamburg gelegen, von 1939 bis 1945 eines der größten deutschen Kriegsgefangenenlager war. Mehr als 50.000 Menschen kamen dort zu Tode, darunter etwa 10.000 Häftlinge aus dem KZ Neuengamme. Der Sockel der Skulptur ist aus Backsteinen der Barackenfundamente aufgeschichtet, die auf dem Lagergelände von Schülern aus Sandbostel gesammelt wurden. Die Künstlerin beschriftete eine bronzene Tafel mit einem Dietrich Bonhoeffer zugeschriebenen Zitat:
„Kein Mensch auf der ganzen Welt kann die Wahrheit verändern. Man kann sie nur suchen, sie finden und ihr dienen. Die Wahrheit ist an jedem Ort. (Quelle: Wikipedia)
