Capturing the entirety of this expansive mural in a single glance while standing before it, proves to be an almost impossible task. Funded through a crowdsourcing effort amounting to 13k euros, likely with the generous contributions of community members, the artists aimed at portraying Heerlen's evolution away from its historical roots. Much like a phoenix emerging from the ashes, this artwork serves as a powerful representation of the city's metamorphosis, transcending its mining heritage and the socio-economic difficulties it once faced.

Just a few meters further not a mural, but a next mining landmark will appear.
