The town hall in Gersdorf was built in 1894.

On the main road through the village, between the entrance and exit to the cemetery, stands the memorial to the fallen of World War I. Behind a kind of sarcophagus, which bears the inscription plaque, a semicircular wall can be seen. Several large slabs are set into this wall, which may have once borne the names of the dead. Nothing was legible anymore. http://www.denkmalprojekt.org/2009/gersdorf_wk1u2_sachs.htm

They look like oversized bottle caps – but Jan Kummer's "Heimat Ensemble II" is more than just XXL decoration. The round objects are reminiscent of DIY crafts from East German times, repurposed everyday items, and creative solutions to shortages. The resemblance to Mickey Mouse? No coincidence. Three circles, a global symbol. Kummer translates this pop icon into standard-sized, tinny spikes – painted in color, somewhere between an artistic figure and a critique of consumerism. A throwaway product becomes a monument, a memory becomes conceptual art. https://www.zeitsprungland.de/poi/jan-kummer-heimat-ensemble-ii

The 🟣 PURPLE PATH 🟣 is a sculpture trail that connects Chemnitz, the 2025 Capital of Culture, with 38 towns and cities in the region. Numerous artists have contributed works of various kinds, telling an unknown history of the region. More information at https://chemnitz2025.de/purple-path/ Jan Kummer "Heimat Ensemble II" in Gersdorf (another group entitled "Heimat Ensemble" is located at the Garagencampus in Chemnitz) Material: fiber-reinforced resin, steel "The group "Heimat Ensemble II" by the painter, object, and conceptual artist Jan Kummer consists of equally sized, round elements reminiscent of enlarged bottle caps. The models for Kummer's sculptures seem to originate from the aimless tinkering in the private sphere of a GDR household, where anonymous everyday materials were transformed into individual objects. The vertically or horizontally assembled or center-folded elements with inward-curved edges and 21 prongs in black, red, blue, and green are reminiscent of Mickey Mouse, arguably the most famous fictional character in the world. In the 1930s, the later world-famous American illustrator and media entrepreneur Walt Disney created these from just three black circles together. Kummer transfers the famous silhouette to the form of patented, DIN-standardized everyday objects. Through playful and ironic exaggeration, allusion, and scaling, disposable products made of thin sheet metal, actually designed for single use, are elevated to permanent works of art. Jan Kummer, born in Weimar in 1965, now lives and works in Chemnitz. In his imagery, he incorporates narrative elements that create connections between a world of memory consisting of presumably fragmented set pieces and the present he observes. With the sculpture group Heimat Ensemble II, the artist cites the idea of home-grown crafts and handicrafts, as well as regional customs. With the motif of remembered self-perception, he also creates a retrospective on the GDR's scarcity society: Everything was tested for its usability, cleverly utilized in a second production cycle, and today, memory becomes art.

An indication that Oelsnitz was located about 310 million years ago in the area of an equatorial mountain range.

A very nice corner

Since you don't get to stand at the center of the Earth every day, it's worth stopping there... Overall, a very beautiful area, with a coffee bar at the State Garden Show Park. A view of the Ore Mountains is also included...

Located directly on a well-maintained route, it's a good place to quickly take a look. There are also a few benches for resting.
