Description
Intertwined roots as a symbol of strength, steadfastness and the memory of times long past. I am fascinated by old trees because they grow in one place over a long period of time, while the world around them is constantly changing.
Northeast of the Pillnitz Castle in Saxony, there is an enchanting place in the middle of the forest. I like to wander there to look at the tall trees and their elegant tree roots. Not far from the idyllic Friedrichsgrund, a small forest path leads up the slope to a ruin. This photograph is dedicated to a root that is located right on the edge of this path. The way up leads to a historical destination for hikers.
At the time when Elector Friedrich August III.of Saxony had the nearby Friedrichsgrund developed as a hiking area, he gave the order to create a network of hiking trails and to build an artificial ruin. This place is surrounded by enchanting trees.Their strong roots are partly above the ground and emphasize the romantic ambience.
