In 1995 the Beckstrasse slag heap in Bottrop was transformed into a landscape park. At its top, a gigantic construction (weighing 210 tons) in the form of a tetrahedron was installed. The structure serves as a viewing platform.

The top of the mountain can be reached only on foot. Don't miss rabbits near the parking lot.
