The bronze Volcano surrounded by miners and steelworkers stands on a intimate residential square, not in a park, so you view it from street level and café benches.

A monumental bronze fountain on Fürstenplatz in the Friedrichstadt district, unveiled in 1913 according to the design of sculptor Friedrich Coubillier. It depicts the Roman god Vulcan and allegorical figures of miners and steelworkers symbolizing the industry of the Ruhr area.
