Maastricht - Meestrechter Geis

At the end of Stockstraat can be seen a statue (by Mari Andriessen, 1961) of the "Meestrechter Geis", a character from Loe Maas's operetta "Four Maastrichters on their Way to the Moon" (1955) who expresses the cheerful, easygoing way of the hospitable people of Maastricht.
