"During the fighting around Gelnhausen, the just 18-year-old Wilhelm Reinhard Freiherr von Massenbach, Lieutenant, fell to the "Prussian Guard Cossacks". His impressive white marble grave, made in the workshop of the famous Berlin sculptor Gottfried Schadow (he created, among other things, the Quadriga at the Brandenburg Gate), still stands today in the cemetery in Gelnhausen."
