In a two-year construction period, the Neu-Isenburg landscape architecture firm Ipach und Dreisbusch positioned 456 round timbers in a meter grid on an area of 18 by 24 meters. The glued, 24 centimeter thick stakes measure 0.6 meters at the edge of the system. Only in the middle do the poles swing up to six meters. The resulting basic shape of a pyramid continues in the angle of inclination of the supporting earth. As you walk around the airy wooden structure, it seems to condense into a solid, depending on the location, only to fan out a few meters further into individual elements. The highlight, however, is the visual axis that runs almost in a north-south direction. It almost shaves a lane in the forest of poles and divides the structure in two halves. If the viewer steps towards it, a huge view opens up. Exactly calculated by tilting the axis slightly to the west, it focuses the view of the exhibition tower and the Hochtaunus. The fact that the basic pyramidal shape is repeated in the buildings and mountains underscores the deliberate expanse of this landmark.

The pole pyramid is a real eye-catcher.
