The sculpture was erected in 2001 by Hans Hoffer and shows the stages of human life between birth and death. The wheel of life as a symbol of the Roman goddess of fortune Fortuna becomes the wheel of fate here, pointing to the most diverse stages of human existence between birth and death. Becoming and passing away as perpetual motion makes us recognize man as part of nature.
