Description

Kind of centipede of (now) 26 elements of of corten steel. 24 of the elements have each six eyelets. Students of Gladbeck schools, groups of artists, clubs and individuals hung imaginatively designed feet made from a great variety of material. Unfortunately, almost all feet were lost due to weathering. On the at present 144 eyelents only six feet are present.
In the course of the redesign of the town hall park, the 2010 Füßler was downsized and got a new place south of the indoor pool.
