Mountain biking
Always a special experience to cycle through the steles and to arrange and understand the text fragments!

Nordic walking
El Lissitzky-Allee is a walk-in sculpture by the Darmstadt artist Gerhard Schweizer. There are 15 steles to the right and left of the path and lots of letters are spread across the concrete pillars. From certain, marked points, the letters form into a quote from the Russian avant-garde artist El Lissitzky.
Every form is the frozen snapshot of a process. So the work is a stop in becoming, and not a rigid goal

The sculpture created by Gerhard Schweizer in 2005 can be understood as the perfect concretization of the concept of art formulated by Lissitzky. The work of art on the northern edge of Schwalbach's Limesstadt satellite settlement consists of three five concrete steles each, which are between 3 and 5.50 meters high. Each one has fragments of the words on it. As the viewer walks through the avenue, the individual pillars form a seemingly continuous wall on which the quote can then be read.
