Since July 2020, the circle of elements has been created above Metzebach as part of the ARS-Natura projects. It is a work of art made of red sandstone steles that are aligned with the cardinal points. A mystical touch can be felt here, especially at sunrises and sunsets. The work of art is part of the ARS NATURA art hiking trail and can be reached via the Nausis panoramic trail and on the X3 towards Metzebacher Höhe.

The small town of Metzebach is well signposted. You can't miss the work of art to the west of town. Here, however, the Ars Natura work of art is simply titled STONE CIRCLE.
Circle of the elements sounds rather sublime 😉
Very nice place to breathe deeply.
