Anyone wandering from Hop Garden to Stobersreuther Berg will see it from afar: the gigantic apocalyptic rider of the Schwarzenbach artist Jochen Strobel. He understands it as a reminder to humanity to respect nature, our livelihood. The body of the horse is made of an old oak, which the hurricane Kyrill knocked over in January 2007 in the ecological park Hertelsleite.
