February 7, 2025, Steinernes Bilderbuch Rock Relief

If you walk from Freyburg an der Unstrut to Henne you will pass here. This section just before the Unstrut flows into the Saale and the one further along the Saale is really a dream and very beautiful in every season. In the picturesque surroundings of a small wine-growing area on the Unstrut, near the famous Max Klinger vineyard, is the Stone Album, a unique monument that reflects the history and culture of the region in a special way. This extraordinary facade with numerous reliefs shows important events, personalities and scenes from the history of the wine-growing area and the surrounding region. The more than 100 reliefs present a wide range of motifs, from the history of wine-growing to cultural and social aspects to everyday scenes from life in this idyllic area. Each relief is carefully designed and offers an insight into the past of the wine-growing area, making the Stone Album a living history book in stone. The Stone Album is not only a cultural and historical monument, but also a popular destination for wine lovers and nature lovers who want to experience the beauty of the Unstrut region and the history of winemaking. Located near the Max Klinger vineyard, it invites visitors to enjoy the atmosphere of the wine-growing area and discover the region's unique culture.

This beautiful rock relief is located directly on the Unstrut cycle path, between Freyburg and Naunburg. What the ancestors carved into the rock there is impressive and definitely worth seeing!

UNSTRUT Source near Kefferhausen in Eichsfeld (400m); Length 192 km; Estuary Großjena near Naumburg into the Saale The Unstrut rises west of Kefferhausen near Dingelstädt in northern Thuringia in southern Eichsfeld. In the Sachsenburg or Thuringian Gate it breaks through the Hainleite. In its lower reaches it flows in numerous loops through the Burgenland district in southern Saxony-Anhalt; below Memleben it is initially flanked by the Ziegelroda Plateau, near Laucha by the Dorndorf Plateau, near Freyburg by the limestone-rich Silent Mountains and flows into the Großjenaer Blumengrund near Naumburg Saale. SAALE Source near Zell in the Fichtelgebirge (728m); Length 413 km; Estuary near Barby into the Elbe The Saale rises in the Fichtelgebirge in Upper Franconia between Zell and Weißenstadt. The upper reaches of the Saale between Zell and Hof are quite leisurely. The river then runs straight through the Thuringian Slate Mountains. The Saale is dammed several times here. The area of the middle Saale begins with the river exiting the Thuringian Slate Mountains and entering the Triassic plate and hill country. After leaving the Saale-Unstrut-Triasland Nature Park near Naumburg, the lower reaches of the river begin. This runs in a flat landscape to the mouth of the Elbe near Barby.
