Teddy Bear of the Month
December 1996

   

We will introduce on this page each month a new and special Teddy Bear of the HERMANN Collection.

Old Heidelberg Bear, 800 years Heidelberg

Heidelberg is one of the most popular towns in Germany for all visitors around the World. This town is now 800 years old. (1196-1996). Heidelberg was founded 1196 under the "Staufer Konrad" which was a brother of Friedrich Barbarossa. The University was founded 1386 from "Kurfürst Ruprecht I". In 1803 it was renewed  by "Markgraf Karl Friedrich" and became than the most important part of Heidelberg.

Because Heidelberg is famous for their University HERMANN designed the Bear as a student. Very typical for the University in Heidelberg are their student fraternity. The students wear as a symbol of friendship the so-called "Bierzipfel". They change it with their most closest friends. It's made of silver and you cannot buy it. You get it as a present from you closest friend.

The Old Heidelberg Bear, 15 3/4 inch, is made of German mohair, stuffed in the traditional kind with ecxelsior, dressed in the style of a Heidelberg-student with silver Bierzipfel.
