 On one memorable occasion the scrap metal artists created a "Peace Bird" contraption which featured a bird suspended high in the air which was able to roll along the railway tracks to the border point on the bridge and, in a gesture of peace towards the GDR, exhibit the bird to those in the east.Although the Görlitzer Tunnel remained in use until the beginning of the 90s, the public access to the site prompted by the new park left it redundant.In the creation of a ‘natural’ arena in the centre of the park the tunnel was destroyed, although not completely with its remains incorporated into the design.
