Location: Lüneburg Heath, Lower Saxony, Germany
The Stone of Wisdom and the Stone Chairs of Fire, Earth, Air and Water are numbers 17 to 21 on the Stone Path in Uelzen. They are therefore also "unfortunately the end", but also offer a great place to take a break.
The stone of "wisdom" stands in the middle. The chairs stand for fire (yellow), water (blue), air (red) and earth (green).
All in all, there are 21 of these beautifully designed granite blocks every 50 to 100 meters along the "WAY OF THE STONES". They are by the German-Swedish artist Dagmar Glemme.

21 rocks line the path from the train station to the city center - every 50 to 100 meters there is a granite block weighing two to eight tons and up to three meters high. The German-Swedish artist Dagmar Glemme has created a picturesque cosmos on these stones. Mythical creatures, archaic signs and symbols are reminiscent of shamanism, the art of the Indians, legends and myths of ancient peoples or the fantastic dream images of Marc Chagall.
