A bit tricky to find where to enter to find the statue but once you are there it’s really amazing. This is in the middle of an open field…semi abandoned. There’s sculpture is obviously fantastic and the fact that it’s located in a pretty remote area makes it even more special! There’s a bus that runs every 20min that drops you pretty close or you can walk 20min from the last stop of line M4.

Trickreich zu finden, in unwirtlicher Industrieumgebung, was aber den Charme ausmacht. Der forgotten giant befindet sich in der Industriebrache südliche hinter dem Contemporary-Art-Museum "Tunnelfabriken" welches recht gut zu erkennen ist. Traut Euch in die Branche rein, auch wenn diese umzäunt ist. Es gibt offene Stellen (am Wellblechzaun vom Osten her kommend) oder offene Tore (z.B. das zum Tunnelfabriken Museum, wenn Ihr von westlicher Seite in die Brache geht). Mit dem öffentlichen Bus könnt Ihr den Giant von beiden Seiten gut erreichen oder ihr lauft so 20 Minuten von der Metro Endhaltestelle der M4 bzw. dem Hafenbus. Ggb. Der Haltestelle gibt es ein lecker Kaffee für die Stärkung. Davor oder/und danach.

Terrible directions from Google maps to get there, but a beautiful troll
