The artwork ‘morgen - ge-stern (2005)  (Stern ohne Himmel auf israelischer Erde)’ by Kurt-Willi Julius is embedded in the old floor tiles.

Many of the floor slabs were broken and had to be replaced. To make the new slabs recognisable, they are made of different coloured Vosges sandstone. The old slabs had to be removed as the underfloor heating only allowed a certain thickness. More slabs broke in the process.
