info:
This is particularly true of the so-called evening bricks. They have been decorated with certain signs, symbols or inscriptions. One can read, for example, how much salary a Ziegler received and sometimes how satisfied he was with it ("Whoever forgets the tip thut, the devil shall eat him immediately"). There are defensive signs that should deter damage from the house. On some roofs there are praying nuns or monks, on other witches or so-called envy heads, others show a tree of life. If something special happened in the house or in the family during the manufacture deals of the bricks, it is not uncommon to find an indication of it on an evening brick. From the cradle to the grave, all conceivable reversing of life are recorded on these bricks. "Snap, snap, and the thread of life is gone" is the motto of a 17th-century brick from Maulbronn Abbey. Wars and peacetimes are recorded on the bricks. And also very tangible and sometimes derisive sayings and representations can be found on the bricks. For this reason, the bricks are an eloquent testament to people's everyday lives; and that's why they're so interesting.
"Celebration evening bricks" are special bricks. The hand-shaped and burnt bricks are decorated with certain signs, motifs and symbols. They are an eloquent testimony to the past everyday life and that is precisely why it is so interesting.
"A special brick on the roof" – this tradition is the origin of motif bricks. They were given special protection.
