The bronze sculpture of the largest deer shot by Kaiser Wilhelm, a 1909 shot 16enders, by Prof. Richard Friese modeled in 1911 and once stood next to the Hubertus chapel against the imperial hunting lodge in Rominten. 
About Richard Friese (1854 - 1918) can be found on the following www.ostpreussen.net:
He was born in Gumbinnen the son of a government official and died in Bad. He became famous for his pictures of animals killed and his bronze sculptures of animals such as the capital for the final sixteen Hubertus chapel of the imperial hunting lodge Rominten, which is inspired Wilhelm II had. [...]
Many of his designs he found in East Prussia - in IBENHORST forest, the Great Moss break that Rominter Heath and the Neman lowland. In addition to works of painting such as the tubes we Deer "or" early in the morning Rominter Heather "(now in the East Prussian State Museum, Lüneburg), he created many sculptures of animals, including the defunct Hirsch figures on the bridge in Deer Rominten.
Only the plastic deer has survived the ravages of war healing. The Russians have taken away after the war Rominten. She is now at a children's playground in the park of Glinka Smolensk. Whether there today anyone knows the history of the plastic may very well be doubted ...
Rominten In itself there are very few traces of German and especially the imperial past. From Hirsch Memorial site, there are only base remains. Also from the Hubertus chapel, once in the immediate vicinity of the plastic, just back up to the exposed foundation is nothing left, just as the imperial Jadgschloss. Whose whereabouts and other traces of the German past in the heathland Rominter such as deer or bridge the Reich by Hermann Goering Jägerhof I dealt with in my next entries here.
