The “Menschen sprechen miteinander” statue

In front of the RWTH Aachen University Library stands the monument People Talking to Each Other. The figures appear as if they have begun a conversation that belongs to no particular time. Their calm posture invites you to pause and perceive the place as a small island of exchange. Between the buildings where research and discussion take place, the work reminds us of the importance of genuine encounters. It shows that communication does not have to be loud and that a quiet moment sometimes creates more connection than many words.
