"At this time, 82 years ago, Pastor Karl Ullmer, Vicar of Wilhelmsfeld, read in the Hamburger Fremdenblatt that a young man by the name of Dr. Jose Rizal was executed at Bagumbayan, in Manila, for rebellious against the Spanish colonial government. Was this the same Jose Rizal who was his guest in Wilhemsfeld? He inquired from the German consul in Manila. The reply was yes, he was the same man. Today, I am the retired Pastor of the same church that Pastor Ulmer and Dr. Rizal had come to know each other and I have lived in the same parsonage where Dr. Rizal had written the final chapters of his Noli Me Tangere. It was one ear ago in June 1977 when I was visited by the young Charge d'Affaires of the Philippine Embassy in Bonn, Mr. Benjamin B. Domingo, now Consul General, with a bus road of Filipino men and women who had come al lover Germany to pay homage to the memory of Dr. Jose Rizal on June 19, as many other Filipinos had done before. In my house, they sang Philippine melodies and someone read Rizal's poem, A Las Flores del Heidelberg. I am very honored and pleased to be a link to the memory of Dr. Rizal here in Germany. But Rizal belongs not only to the Filipinos, nor the Germans alone, but to the world. It is my hope that this book about Rizal during his stay in Germany, will be another eloquent reminder how the brilliance of Dr. Rizal's life had illuminated some of the darkness and problems of human kind. - GOTTLOB WEVER, Pfrarrer, Wilhelmself, Germany, 30 December 1978" -Excerpts from the Foreword.
