Artwork named "Der drehende Park" (The Rotating Park) is made in 2000 by Olafur Eliasson.

Cube-shaped wire cages filled with different sized chunks of local sandstone are stacked into slightly curved wall elements. The six walls are arranged to form an exact geometric system. In spite of the open form, which is precisely aligned to the north and south entrances, the spiral structure seems to form a closed room that gives no view to the outside.

Materials: Stones, wire, metal.
