          Impressive wooden sculpture! Here someone controls the chainsaw.
          Right next to it is also a Mariengrotte with some seating.

              The view is fantastic! Certainly good for a small picnic in warmer temperatures.

                Nice idea to put a huge wooden lizard on this rest area. The Mariengrotte next to it is nice with benches for a little devotion.
