It was built by Joachim Koch and the Björn Sippel family based on the Neolithic model
(Neolithic, approx. 7000 years before our time).
The megalithic yard (0.829 m) found by Alexander Thom was included in the planning as a unit of measurement.
The stone circle is astronomically aligned according to:
- The four cardinal directions
- The summer and winter solstices (solstices)
