Oscar Heiler returns: bronze arts in the Bürgertreff Gablenberg

In a solemn ceremony, the city's Peter Linder Foundation has given the city a special honor: a bust of the famous folk actor Oscar Heiler. This impressive sculpture, designed by the talented Stuttgart sculptor Hanne Schorp-Plumm, not only symbolizes the art that healers embodied, but also brings part of his history back to the city that shaped him.

The handover took place in the Gablenberg community meeting, a place that is located near Heiler's former residence in Bergstrasse. Peter Linder, as a representative of the foundation, ceremoniously presented the bust to Mayor Frank Nopper. This marks a significant moment for the local community and is a sign of appreciation for the artistic heritage that Oscar Heiler has left. Heiler, who conquered the hearts of people during his lifetime, gained great awareness through his roles in the German theater and film and is still remembered.

Oscar Heiler's connection to the city

Long before the bust were unveiled, Oscar Heiler was recognized by a stealing steering assigned to him. This Oscar healer relay extends in the south of Stuttgart from Mörikestrasse to the Karlshöhe. However, it was not the comedian's wish that this route runs in the south. Instead, Heiler would have preferred a connecting piece in his home area in the east of the city, which leads up to the book forest.

Now Oscar Heiler symbolically returns to Gablenberg, where the bust should inspire viewers and residents alike over the next few years. The artistic representation of Hanne Schorp-Pflumm represents the folk actor as a bronze character head and thus creates a lasting impression of his acting heritage.

The foundation that donated the bust sets a sign of art and culture in Stuttgart and underlines the commitment to memory work on significant personalities. This gesture illustrates how important it is to preserve and celebrate cultural values and local heroes such as Oscar Heiler.

in a world in which cultural and historical contributions often forgotten, the return of Oscar Heiler's memory is a valuable sign. It calls for younger generations to deal with city history and to appreciate people who have left a lasting impression. This bust is not only regarded as a work of art, but also as a monument that brings the meaning of Heiler's work and life into the awareness of citizens and visitors.
