The Heunensäule in Mainz is a stone sculpture created by artist Gernot Rumpf in 1975. Originally intended for the reconstruction of the Willigis Cathedral in the 11th century, these columns were never used. They stand as a testament to the entrepreneurial spirit and architectural ambition of the era.
