    The pilgrimage monument “Beginning and Ending,” designed by Karl Imfeld for Expo 2000, is a two-part sculptural work. A three-column sculpture in the same style is located not far from the Loccum monastery, the other four-column work is here at the Volkenroda monastery. They mark the beginning and end points of the Loccum-Volkenroda pilgrimage route. Together, the group consisting of two limestone works forms a ring.
