The stone egg was built voluntarily by Klaus Waldbüßer in around 350 hours of work between July 2020 and December 2020. Each individual stone was worked with a hammer and chisel and then placed in place without mortar or glue. It weighs around 4 tons. The egg was originally exhibited for the first time at the BUGA in Heilbronn in 2019 and was moved to this new location the following year, stone by stone. Respect for this voluntary effort.

In my opinion, this stone egg is the largest in the area.
The builder has really done a remarkable job here.
I would give the estimated height as 2.5m.
A really worth seeing object.

Update Nov. 2022: A sign with a description has now been attached.

The egg stood on the Buga HN. Also easily accessible by bike.
