The bronze statue at the old customs office in Mützenich commemorates the post-war years of coffee smuggling in the former smuggling village of Mützenich, which looks back on an exciting and fascinating past and has some curious stories to tell. Having become a German exclave on Belgian territory due to the Vennbahn after the Second World War, coffee smuggling flourished in the village as it was at the center of the smuggling routes.
