20의 루피너 호수가지 명소 & 주요 장소

The Wichmann Linden tree in Neuruppin is a living natural monument – a tree that breathes history and enriches the city with its serene presence. This impressive winter linden stands near the city wall by the Neuruppin Monastery Church and is one of the oldest trees in the region. With an estimated age of over 700 years, it is not only a botanical highlight but also a symbol of both continuity and change. The tree is hollow after being struck by lightning, but this does not diminish its majestic appearance – on the contrary: it acts as a venerable guardian of the city's history. https://www.baumkunde.de/baumregister/3327-wichmannlinde_in_neuruppin/

The monumental stainless steel sculpture "Parzival am See" (Parzival by the Lake) on the shore of Lake Ruppin is far more than just a work of art; it is a powerful symbol of change and hope. Standing a proud 17 meters tall, Parzival, created by the artist Matthias Zágon Hohl-Stein, was unveiled in 1998 to mark the town's renaming as "Fontanestadt" (Fontane City). The symbolism is particularly striking: In one hand, Parzival holds a windmill, in the other an ark – symbols of progress and preservation. The sculpture represents a new Neuruppin without a garrison, a city on the move, confronting its history while simultaneously looking to the future. An inspiring place that invites reflection – and a fantastic photo opportunity right on the lakeshore. Anyone visiting Neuruppin should definitely take a look at this modern-day knight. https://tourismus-neuruppin.de/kultur-erleben-neuruppin/sehenswertes-neuruppin/119-parzival-am-see-neuruppin

Parzival at Lake Neuruppin

It's said that Sunday children can see Wichmann at a certain time on New Year's Eve. Unfortunately, I'm a Tuesday child.

The winter linden tree / Wichmann linden tree stands close to a slope on the city wall near the Neuruppin monastery church. The tree is over 700 years old and has since become hollow after being struck by lightning, but still blooms every year.

Parzival is seen as a symbol of new beginnings. With the wind turbine in one hand and the ark in the other, he was unveiled on the lake promenade in 1998 to mark the awarding of the name "Fontanestadt". The 17-meter-high sculpture made of stainless steel was created by the artist Matthias Zágon Hohl-Stein.

The mantle of the hollow trunk is broken in two places, so that the crown appears to rest on three pillars. Named after the legendary founder of the monastery, Father Wichmann. Before his death in 1270, Father Wichmann is said to have decided that he should be laid in a glass coffin and that this should be placed in a silver one. Furthermore, according to the old Germanic custom, a linden tree should be planted on his grave and when the linden tree had died, his grave could be opened, but not before.

The over 700-year-old tree, which has since become hollow after being struck by lightning, still blooms every year.
