{{Use dmy dates|date=March 2018}}The Lörrach Sculpture Path (Lörracher Skulpturenweg) is a Sculpture trail of 23 works and fountains through the southern German city of Lörrach. In 1986 extensive urban planning changes were made in the city. A busy main road was decommissioned in favour of a pedestrian street. The city was transformed with the goal of making Lörrach into a culturally attractive town in the Swiss-French-German border region.[1] The sculpture trail, with works by both international and local artists, was commissioned.[2] The route begins at the cultural centre Burghof Lörrach with a truncated pyramid by Bruce Nauman. The trail takes a circular route past Dreiländermuseum, the town hall and the market.[3] Sculptures and FountainsThe fountains and sculptures are given below in the order that they appear along pathway. - Bruce Nauman, Truncated Pyramid Room, (concept 1982/installed 1998): The Pyramid of North American artist on the courtyard is a matte black, 7.5 meter high walk-truncated pyramid.
