Gerechtigkeitsspirale, Public artwork at St. Valentin Church, Kiedrich, Germany.
The Justice Spiral decorates a parapet plate within the Catholic St. Valentine and Dionysius Parish Church, featuring text arranged in a spiral pattern.
The artwork was crafted by Erhart Falckener, a master carpenter from Rheingau, and stands within a church built around 1300.
The Justice Spiral represents medieval craftsmanship within St. Valentin Church, which received the title Basilica Minor from Pope Benedict XVI in 2010.
Visitors can observe this spiral text arrangement during church opening hours, alongside other medieval artistic elements including carved pews from 1500.
The spiral text pattern demonstrates the integration of written messages into architectural elements, reflecting medieval communication methods in religious spaces.
