Jockel
November 6, 2025, Der Sämann (Weidenskulptur von Irmgard Wissing, Eschborn)

A woven—or rather, wrapped—willow sculpture was erected as part of the 1250th anniversary celebrations of the town of Eschborn. The cornucopia was adorned with fresh strawberries, and the seed tray was filled with seeds. Attaching these to the body of the "sower" was a bit tricky at first, as was calculating the entire statics, explains Irmgard Wissing. The willow artist from Bad Bevensen is proud that her woven figure, which was originally intended to be erected last year for the 1250th anniversary, could finally be unveiled. It now stands in the Oberwiesen meadows, next to the extended Dörnweg path near Steinbacher Straße.

The bizarre-looking Araucaria trees are native to the southern Andes and are one of the main tree species there. Here you'll find a beautiful group of these attractive trees. The rocks nearby provide another decorative element and are ideal for sitting.

A very original carousel in the arboretum. It offers plenty of fun for both children and the young at heart, and makes for some funny photos.

There is a cattle carousel in the arboretum, but it is difficult to turn, so never go there alone😂 because children find it easy to ride on the rotating 🐄🐂🐃.
