At the Rhine promenade "Wilhelm-Spiritus-Ufer" a bas-relief from the late 19th century is built into the wall of the stair building to "Tempelstrasse".
The relief shows a scene from the opera "Das Rheingold" from Richard Wagner. The dwarf Alberich of the people of the Nibelungen snatches the Rhine gold from the "Vater Rhein". In the background one of the Rhine daughters observes the events.
The bas-relief in a round arch exists of red tinted downpour stone and is bordered by a wreath from basalt.
