    Hiking

    Markus Sauermann's monumental sandstone sculpture "East-West" was created in 2023 in Schweinstal near Krickenbach. Two striking stone elements face each other – separate yet connected. They symbolize the dialogue between opposites that complement each other despite their differences and open up new perspectives. In the midst of nature, this creates a striking image of balance and tension that inspires reflection on unity and diversity.

    ✨ Tip: The sculpture looks best in the evening light, when the warm tones of the sandstone are particularly emphasized.

    Hiking

    European Sculpture Road of Peace in Reipoltskirchen

    A short circular hiking trail around Reipoltskirchen Castle with a presentation of contemporary positions of sculptural art as a "gallery in the green". The circular trail is natural and is just under a kilometer long.

    A visit to Reipoltskirchen moated castle is therefore doubly worthwhile :-)
