    Hiking

    Like an elongated, large "T", the sculpture created by sculptor Jürgen Waxweiler entitled "Big Double Head Traben-Trarbach" rises in the center of the traffic island. In two directions, one forward and one back, the double head looks over the city like a sentinel.

    Hiking

    The "Great Double Head" in Traben-Trarbach is a striking, seven-meter-high sandstone sculpture by the artist Jürgen Waxweiler. It stands as a landmark in the traffic circle on the B53 at the entrance to Trarbach and symbolically connects the two districts. The sculpture was erected in 2011 and depicts two heads – one looking towards Traben, the other towards Trarbach, as guardians of the "twin town".
