Description Deutsch · English
Certainly you can visit this cache at daylight, but though you would see the temple you won't see the light nor the hunters of the night. Thic would be a shame.
For here you can watch them hunting not as usually at dawn but exceptionally at dark night, these our little friends, that prevent us from visiting many an interesting cache during winter time.
The Temple Of Light was conceptualize by the artist Edward Allington (*1951).
The company GDF SUEZ running the combined heat and power plant (they call the artwork Falling Temple) describe Allington's creation like this:
When the artist Edward Allington began to think about the über die originalities of public area he became aware: Whart were churches in former days are now power plants. They act as symbols for our period. On the one hand they are mundane, on the other hand they are like temples. Therefore the artist has placed on the roof of the cooling building a 6 x 13 meter sized falling temple. großen, fallenden Tempel platziert. Die building sculpture „Falling Temple“, from where a ray of light shines direct into the Saar, astablishes a relationship between industial buildin to industrial river. This position acts as a display of a hood ornament.
This ray of light catches the moths and these serve as a feast for the Hunters of the Night. However only up to one o'clock, then the light is switched off.
You should consider the following:
(1) You should better not wander alone in the park at night.
(2) This place is highly accessible for wheelchair users. Unfourtunally the cache is placed in a height that is difficult to reach for wheelchair users
(3) You will need a multi slip-joint gripping pliers, better a wrench (22mm). Sometimes it's difficult to open the cache box, then you might also need a hammer. (I am unsure about the translations, see pictures!)
(4) For those who can't find the cache there is a hint placed at (N 49° 13.389 E 007° 00.785) ...
(5) ... and for those who are completely off the track there is a spoiler picture here (N 49° 13.281 E 007° 00.966).(6) NEW! Now INCLUDING the wrench. You will find it exacltly at kilometer 90.1. Woe to the one who let it slip into the water. !!!It's lost already!!!
The combined heat and power plant Römerbrücke is well-known for its elaborated "Kunst am Bau" (I don't know if there is something comparable in other countries) and is favored by geocachers. The other artworks are:
Schneemann (snowman) by Peter Fischli (*1952) and David Weiss (*1946)
(Der Schneemann by die Rupp's)
Häuserlandschaft (houses landscape) by Thomas Schütte (*1954)
Wassermühle /water mill) by Katharina Fritsch (*1956)
(Die Mühle by knoe91)

26 November 2017 mic@ has archived the cache
Das letzte Funddatum liegt lange zurück und die Logs auf geocaching.com (GC567H8) lassen darauf schließen, das der Cache nicht mehr zu finden ist. Aus diesem Grunde archiviere ich ihn auch hier. Sollten sich später neue Aspekte ergeben, so kann dieses Listing durch den Owner selbständig über ein "kann gesucht werden"-Log reaktiviert werden.

Neueröffnung!
Der Cachebehälter wurde wasserfest gemacht und so kann es endlich hier weitergehen. Ihr braucht auch kein Werkzeug mehr mitbringen, es ist in der Nähe versteckt.
Viel Spaß beim Beobachten der Jäger der Nacht.
