Listen to the story of this bronze relief by Willfried Fitzenreiter. Comissioned in 1964 by the Turn- und Sportclub Berlin, it’s embossed with finely crafted rowing figures — and a strong humanistic statement. Head around to the back as you listen to see the quote by the originator of the modern Olympic Games, Pierre de Coubertin: 

LOVE PEACE 

RESPECT LIFE
