Rubbing against the sculpture or against social conflicts. Friction creates tension and could also contribute to the resolution of conflicts.
Location: Schalksmühle-Rotthausen (fork in the road), coordinates: 51.230826, 7.505293
Additional information: On the nature & culture hike, starting at the Rotthausen hiking parking lot, you can hike not only to the Scheuerpfahl but also to the Glörtalsperre reservoir nearby.
As part of the Scheuerpfähle fürs Volmetal project, 20 artistically designed Scheuerpfähle will be erected in the four municipalities that have joined together to form the Oben an der Volme region. They are intended to draw attention to special features in the Volme Valley, serve as landmarks or invite reflection. The X 20 hiking trail, which connects Schalksmühle, Halver, Kierspe and Meinerzhagen over a length of 20 kilometers, is the bracket.
The initiator and sponsor of the project is the VAKT art association from Halver. The NRW Ministry for Regional Identity, Communities and Local Government, Building and Gender Equality has sponsored the project. Minister Ina Scharrenbach personally delivered the funding notification to Halver on the Saturday before Christmas 2019.
Scouring poles have their origins in agriculture. Farmers used to put them in the Weide so that cattle could rub against them. In the Volmetal, the posts are also intended to figuratively point out points of friction. They are intended to draw attention to special places, stimulate discussion or help to rediscover home.
