Look up and be captivated by this unique fusion of past and present. The Jupiter Column with its distinctive Grüngürteltier is a work of art that sparks the imagination. Imagine standing in an ancient Roman temple, with Jupiter, the god of sky and thunder, towering before you. But instead of an eagle, a creature from a modern fairy tale stands beside him. The Grüngürteltier, a nod to Frankfurt's Green Belt, symbolizes the link between nature and the city. Just behind you, the tranquil Tiroler Weiher whispers stories of myth and legend. Let this place inspire you, where history and contemporary art beautifully blend.
