April 25, 2026, Wasser-Mann vom Brühbach - Ars Natura

Thorsten von Mackensen, Kaufungen »Water–Man – from the Brühbach« Water is essential for life. A spring offers the opportunity to settle. “Water is life. Water is precious. Water is change. Water connects. Water dissolves.” The Water-Man guards the spring of the former village “Braubach”, whose inhabitants already migrated to the nearby town of Spangenberg in the Middle Ages, leaving this place as a ruin. The old village name “Braubach” changed over time to the field name “Brühbach”. Source: http://www.ars-natura-stiftung.de/index.php/de/kunstwerk/47?c=34&ts=3

A small shelter for sudden downpours and a picnic bench next to it, for a break in good weather.

To the right of the Carl Braun Hut, near the bench, a steep trail winds through the forest, amidst leaves and branches. If you don't stray from the trail (like I did 🙈), you'll emerge above the ICE bridge near Adelshausen.

The waterman is sometimes red, sometimes blue, but always slim and naked 😉 He was probably blue with cold today, because I have also seen and photographed him in a red dress.

The square where the bench is located is called Im Neuendorf - with a beautiful view of Spangenberg!
