Modern Stone Settings in Trentino-Alto Adige

A beautiful example of "Land Art" built by the community of South Tyrolean Algund in collaboration with the German artist Heinrich Bunzel and geometer Martin Geier.

On the area of 7500 sq metres 101 stones of different sizes have been erected with a little artificial pond in the middle. Some of the stones are more than 2m in height and weigh 2.5t. This stone represents the theme of the sun with ten rays.
