    The work of art “Hand” was created by Bernhard Mathäss in 2022 and is part of the Maikammer art trail.

        What the "hand" is all about (text from the sign):

        "The "hand" impresses with its size and thus highlights its multifaceted meaning as a symbol of energy, care, understanding, and protection. [...] Viewers are invited to become aware of the symbolism of the hand and to reflect on their own role in protecting and caring for their surroundings and environment."

        That's certainly something to think about. However, I find it rather funny that the pedestal "invites you to linger" 😄
