Music is the language of the angels. In the large orchestra of Grünhainichen Angels®, more than 70 musicians play the violin, lyre, drum, triangle, trombone and a wide array of other musical instruments.

Their history
The form of the angel musicians goes back to 1923, when Grete Wendt designed her first three Eleven Dot Angels. She created them as Christmas gifts for her employees, one carrying a torch, and the others playing the trumpet and violin.
Over the decades more enchanting figurines appeared - with instruments and with gifts offered by these heavenly messengers. Always dressed in their characteristic white robes with the blue line around the collar, and with the traditional green wings bearing eleven white dots.

International recognition
In 1937, the display comprising an elegant Madonna on a dark blue Angel Mountain surrounded by happy angel musicians created great interest throughout the world. Our company founder Grete Wendt was awarded the Grand Prix and a gold medal at the Paris World Exhibition for her “Angel Mountain with Madonna”.
