€uro-Skulptur

Changed hotels from one side of the city centre to the other so ambled across finding more caches

The huge neon sign is the work of artist Ottmar Hoerl and was erected at the foot of the then headquarters of the European Central Bank in Frankfurt's financial district in 2001.The sculpture shows a blue Euro symbol with 12 yellow stars representing each of the single currency's initial member countries. Hoerl's cartoonish sculpture, loved and loathed equally by Frankfurt's inhabitants, remains in the green belt of park that girdles the city centre.
