Adolf Daens","Werf (Aalst)","In 1957 kreeg priester Adolf Daens (1839-1907) een standbeeld in Aalst, 50 jaar na zijn overlijden. Het beeld werd onthuld door de voorzitter van het Daens-herdenkingscomité. Daens was een voorvechter voor de rechten van fabrieksarbeiders in Aalst en is van grote betekenis in de politieke geschiedenis van Vlaanderen. Beeldhouwer Marc De Bruyn, geboren in Aalst en daar ook leraar aan de academie, ontwierp en maakte het standbeeld. De figuur van priester Daens kijkt vanop de Werf uit op de Dender. Hij kijkt hier naar de brug die over de Dender naar de arbeiderswijken leiden.  "]
