The architect Fausto Cardoso, the ceramist Christy Hengst and the blacksmith Helmut Hillenkamp designed the "Plaza del Herrero". Together with local artisans they built a monument to the blacksmiths. The Plaza joins the quarter of the blacksmiths (Herrerias) with the Museum of Ceramics. Helmut had previously worked with various blacksmiths in the neighborhood and wanted to do something for the neighborhood he loved so much.
From the DVD by Tom Meffert and Dagmar Diebels, available at iron-to-live-with.com.
