Tiger and Turtle – Magic Mountain, Steel walking sculpture in Angerpark, Duisburg, Germany
The installation features a 249-meter pathway that follows the shape of a roller coaster track with metal stairs and railings at 21 meters height.
Built in 2011 by artists Heike Mutter and Ulrich Genth, this architectural structure stands on a former industrial site transformed into a recreational area.
The installation represents the transformation of industrial heritage into modern art, reflecting the region's shift from manufacturing to cultural innovation.
Visitors can access the sculpture every day without admission fees and climb its stairs to experience panoramic views of the Rhine and Duisburg.
The structure includes a vertical loop section that remains closed to access, creating an optical illusion of a complete roller coaster track.
