Tips
Back in the fresh air, standing between the precisely trimmed hedges, a larger-than-life sculpture first caught our attention:
With my Jacob, who intends to sacrifice his son, I am just as far off the mark as the “rest of the troops” who talk about Cain, who is currently assassinating his brother. Meanwhile, it turns out that it is Samson who is swinging the club at lofty heights. “The sculpture shows the biblical figure Samson, who, according to a story in the book of Judges [...] killed 1,000 Philistines with the jawbone of a donkey.”
