Discover more about Sternenweg Sculpture

The Sternenweg Sculpture, also known as "A Stairway" or Zvjezdani put, is located in Sarajevo's Hastahana Park. Gifted to Sarajevo by the German city of Friedrichshafen in 2005, the installation of the Sternenweg (meaning “Road under the Stars”) in Hastahana Park marked the culmination of a 30-year journey, during which it was displayed in various locations, including Santiago de Compostela, Rome, and even in front of the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. Created by German sculptor Helmut Lutz, this extensive abstract installation doubles as an interactive jungle gym and a complex noise-making apparatus. The sculpture comprises a hodgepodge of objects such as trumpets, exotic effigies, animal heads, oversized ears, and tubular spirals, all coalescing into an immersive experience that transcends conventional art forms. Near a bustling skate park, the sculpture serves as a canvas for the vibrant graffiti that often graces its surface. This interaction between the sculpture and the urban art creates a dynamic atmosphere reflecting the city's pulse. The area is frequented by local skaters and artists, adding authenticity and energy to the experience.
