In the middle of the roundabout Esweg-Schultenstraat-Dingspelstraat is a work of art since 2006. It consists of three four meters high steel axes. They are sprayed lifelike in color. The story behind it is that Beilen is pronounced in Dutch as "Bijlen". If you translate this into Dutch it becomes axes.
