The Teutonic Forest is a very historical place in the hearts of the Germans in Europe, because here, The Germanic leader Heilmann, who was still a barbarian more than two thousand years ago, led the Germanic people who were still barbarians to defeat the invincible Romans and prevent the Romans from expanding further in the Germanic region. What is even more amazing is that deep in the forest of this area, there is a mysterious boulder group called Externsteine Stone Mountain. Legend has it that from a long time ago, it was an ancient holy place for the local indigenous Saxons, a branch of the Germanic people, and a worship and cultivation. Today, at the foot of the stone mountain and at the top of the mountain, you can see stone carvings, stone houses and murals left over from generation to generation in history. In folklore, it is also said to be a place of strange and mysterious power in central Germany, and is regarded as one of the seven magical energy stonesite in the world, also known as Germany's Stonehenge. In nazi Germany, because the Nazis wanted to promote the ultra-nationalism they admired, the place was once again widely publicized and mythologized. So today, the publicity for this place is much more low-key. And many of the legends and myths about this place are not known whether they were really passed on by word of mouth or later made up by people for some political purpose.
After the showers, we came here just as the sun was setting. Sure enough, these boulders, which were formed 70 million years ago, look extraordinary under the autumn sunset.
And the celestial hole of the prehistoric temple that came to the top of the hill looked out, and the sun and moon did not seem to be in their most ideal observation position now ;)
However, on the other side of the celestial hole, the sunset paints the Teutoburg forest in autumn with a strong color:
The stone mountains are indeed not high, but under the sunset after this rain, we really feel their uniqueness and aura.
Back at the bottom of the mountain, you can also follow the forest trail along the side of the small lake along the side of the lake, and the scenery is also very pleasant. It is said that 10,000 years ago, human beings lived here. It is conceivable that the people who lived here must have been impressed by the boulders, beautiful scenery and mysterious temperament here, and gradually regarded this place as their totem and holy place. I don't know what kind of feelings and opinions readers have about this place?
