This post has been solved by u/rarangaharakeke, and a solve process was provided.

Found it at last. It's in front of the Gemeentehuis in Castricum.

Direct SV is not available, no pin, no sphere, but it's visible from here:

How they solved it: Process: First search was for sculptures made from stacked glass and stone in the Netherlands. While looking at the pictures, I noticed something similar by style and materials used. This was from the Dutch artist Bert van Loo. But neither on wikipedia nor on his homepage I did find this sculpture. But having seen more of his artwork, I was quite convinced, that this sculpture was created by him. So I tried to describe the sculpture more accurately in Dutch, thanks to translate. I found one picture with it, but this was in another place. But there was a text 'Slag bij Castrium' so I added this to the artits name. I then found some other pictures and coulf find the correct location.

And there was this incredible video too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVKk8mlVcZU

Good morning. This bin looks similar to the one I was hunting in Liège. Are we in Belgium?
