Salzblume Sculpture, Schönebeck

Here there is the Salzländer Kulturstempel No. 27.

The 16 m high and 12 m wide sculpture stands directly on the Elbe. The foundation is a pan salt crystal, as it once was in the Siedepfannen. The structure is a replica of the framework of the old Salzspeicher, some of which have been preserved in Schönebeck. Triangular elements refer to the three closely related to the salt districts Bad Salzelmen, Frohse and Schönebeck. The sails are reminiscent of the sailing ship traffic on the Elbe and the wings of seagulls.

Interesting structure at the Schönebeck landing stage... always worth a visit and a photo...🚴👍🙋🏼‍♂️one of Schönebeck's landmarks...
