Can the four carters be role models for the children? After all, they would show the youngsters in the primary school in the Miesbach district of Parsberg that you can gamble without a cell phone or console. And let’s say they would play Schafkopf: Then they cultivated Bavarian cultural assets, which also applied in a very similar way to the Watten. Only then, unfortunately, with the reputation of illegal gambling, at least when it comes to money. In addition, the carters sit as a carters quite stupid at the table. At least one of the others could look into the cards of each of them, because as “Miesbach dignitaries playing cards” they should of course all be seen from the front on the mural by the Hausham painter Josef Stallhofer.
The picture is still emblazoned in the hall of the Altwirt in Parsberg, but because this inn will soon be demolished, the picture is to move to the local elementary school. The Miesbach finance committee had found an exemplary solution so far. Except that two of the four notables were apparently local Nazis. That is why money alone is not enough for the Finance Committee.
It all started with an application from the D’Rohnbergler Parsberg Mountain Costume Preservation Association, which not only wants to preserve mountain costumes, but also, most recently, three murals from the Altwirt, which is to be demolished. The people of Rohnberg would like to have the picture “Der Viergsang musiziert”, which shows the legendary musician and collector of folk songs Kiem Pauli, among other things, in the Trachtenheim. The “Parsberger Bauernrunde” is said to be sitting at the regulars’ table in another inn. And the carters would be left for school.
The costumers want to pay most of the costs for transferring the pictures from donations, but they would also like a subsidy from the city. The city council’s finance committee may not say no, only two councilors found out that half of the carters, namely the alleged notables Wiedemann and Hinterdobler, were local Nazis. Of the Miesbach Mercury knows how to report on a lengthy debate, at the end of which a majority approved the money – plus an information board on the historical background, so that the Parsberg elementary school students don’t take the two wrong carters as a role model.
