        Magnificent view over wine terraces, to Freiburg and to the Vosges with the sandstone sculpture "Tree of the Elements" by the Eichstetter sculptor Joachim Bihl.

                      The Tree of Elements is a stone expression of emergence and decay. It was unveiled by Joachim Bihl on June 9, 2013 at the Schelinger Matten. More information: kunst-natur-kaiserstuhl.de/kunstwerke/baum-der-elemente

                      There you have a wonderful view of the Kaiserstuhl, the Rhine plain and the Vosges.

                            It is an almost mystical view of the Vosges when fog has formed in the Rhine plain. A romantic view into the distance.

                                    The Tree of Elements is a "stone expression of creation and decay."
                                    This remarkable sandstone sculpture by the artist Joachim Bihl was ceremoniously unveiled on the Schelinger Höhe in 2013.

                                      Beautiful sunny spot with seating area. Also a great vantage point in the heart of the Kaiserstuhl.
