A Experiência

The Externstein is an enchanting rock formation that lies in the heart of the Teutoburger forest located in Ostwestfalen-Lippe in Germany. Climbing these sandstone pillars will definitely transport you to another place in time. Interestingly, these are not ordinary sandstone formations. According to experts, the Externstein dates as early as 10000 BC and have been thought to be a site for rituals and worships of pagans. In contrast to its pagan connection, a roofless chapel was also carved out of one of the sandstones and may be accessed through a narrow staircase carved by Christian hermits who occupied the Externstein during the medieval period. Perhaps the Externstein has also been used as an observatory for astronomy during the old ages because there is a spot where one will see the first rays of the sun after a winter is located in one of the sandstone pillars. The lush greenery provides contrast to the gray sandstones and one may see stunning views of the place when atop the stone formations.
