The shepherd figure on the Dream Loop LandZeitTour near Morbach is one of the striking, life-size wooden sculptures created by the artist Jonas Herrmann from Allenbach. It serves as a vivid element to illustrate historical agriculture and the profound development of the Hunsrück region. The figure of the shepherd has great symbolic significance: It reminds us that the local landscape was once largely shaped by sheep grazing, a form of land use that was historically typical for the region. The figure is often placed in the temporal context of the 1820s and thus tells the story of the rural professions that shaped people's lives and the appearance of nature for centuries. It is part of an ensemble of 13 figures, including the Harvest Woman and the Herbal Woman, who together transform the LandZeitTour into an open-air museum of regional history, introducing hikers to the connections between culture, work, and landscape development.
