Hiking

In this respect, the so-called planetary house is also remarkable. According to an inscription on the building, it was probably built in 1608. This has two rows of carved panels showing representations of the seven planets and the five senses. The juxtaposition of planets or metals and the human body can be read against the background of the time as a representation of the theory of correspondence between microcosm and macrocosm. On the planetary house there is also a carved frieze depicting the unicorn and two mythical creatures, presumably apothecary symbolism.
