Best Hikes to Friesendom Monument Dangast

Tips

  • The Frisian Cathedral in DangastCreated in my head in 1999.Was made possible by sponsors and funding from the EU in 2004.Inauguration of the Friesendom on August 24, 2005.Guests: e.g. Lower Saxony Prime Minister Christian Wulff.The sculpture is made out of a 100 ton granite block and stuff
    split so that the 4 elements could be rejoined,
    so that the visitor to the Friesendom is told that they are inside a granite block. (SOURCE: www.eckart Grenzer.de)

  • The "Friesendom" is a sculpture for the victims of the past storm surges and a memorial for the constant threat to our coast from the sea. It forms a cross in plan, which is aligned with the four cardinal points (cloister). The bronze bell (The Friesian) in the center begins to ring at hurricane-force winds and warns - as it has for centuries - of the storm and the sea.Prime Minister Christian Wulff had the idea and the creation of the "Friesendom" explained to him in detail by the sculptor Eckart Grenzer.
