Rothsee

Highlight • Lake

Lake Rothsee has a lot to offer: It has several beaches where you can sunbathe (or sunbathe) – there's even a dedicated dog beach. Surfing, stand-up paddling, and boating – everything is possible. There are several playgrounds around the lake and many paths for walking and cycling. Food and drink are also available. A worthwhile destination.

The sculpture on the Rothsee "Große Schulter" was made by Gisela Marianne Richter, a freelance artist, sculptor and painter. The artist has set up a large-format, fully sculptural sculpture at the location near the Heuberg sailing harbor. This should also be able to work remotely with the given dimensions of the terrain. The work stands in deliberate contrast to nature: "Things from another world, but which is also our world." The work was welded together from various iron parts (material thickness about 5 to 6 mm), galvanized and painted with iron mica paint.

Framing Gate

Highlight • Monument

On the lakeshore near the Kronmühler bay, a landscape-setting "gate" was erected. Due to the inclination of the natural stone wall toTorstein, the work is very exciting. The conspicuous tendency of the obliquely rising contra-angle gives the stone setting a very definite, symbolic impression, which has an effect on the landscape. The different surface formation of the two natural stone slabs made from Roggenstein granite underscores this exciting shape. It is of great importance that both parts are cut from an approximately 32 to 35 cm thick stone slab and their new assignment creates a strong spatiality.
