Relief and inscription on the house on liefergasse (corner of ratinger strasse), düsseldorf, liefergasse looking towards ratinger strasse (from 1823). The previous house was demolished in 2012. The former house on liefergasse, opposite the löwenhaus (delivery house), formed a unit with the house on ratinger strasse no. 3. The most interesting owner among the many nobles who lived there was baron von weichs, whose coat of arms with the two monkeys is still on display today. The inscription reads: the monkeys were seduced by weichs's shaving skills and died when they tried the knife themselves. As a warning, because imitation often brings pain, weichs uses the two on his house coat of arms.
