Guided Story
Take a closer look at this shelter. The futuristic green airship is part of the BUSSTOPS project, realized between 1990 and 1994. It's an example of how public art can transform our everyday surroundings. International architects and designers created this structure to merge functionality with creativity. This semi-open shelter is not just a place to wait for your bus or tram, but also a remarkable piece of art. From here, you can also spot the nearby Museum August Kestner, just 26 meters to the south.
