Bonifatius Spring and Peace Bell in Schötener Grund

Highlight (Segment) • Natural Monument

From one moment to the next, you go from the (bell) city to the (legendary) forest, from the noise to the sounds of nature and follow the Luther Trail. Beautiful shady paths along the stream, highly recommended.

June 7, 2025,Wanderung KidsTour Apolda

A spontaneous walk before shopping. It ended up raining, too. But it was bearable under the trees. This is actually a good walk for children. There are various educational stations along the way, but there are also sporting activities to enjoy. The walk also offers the opportunity to stop at a snack bar by the lake.
If that's closed, there's …

Today, our morning tour took us back to Apolda. Instead of the forecast rain, the sun shone with a mild 20°C. The early spring blooms created a magnificent backdrop. At least after the tour, breakfast was digested, and we had the appetite and room for a delicious Sunday lunch. 🤣

April 9, 2022,Apolda: Kunsthaus - Schötener Grund - Ringpromenade - Herressener Promenade

The Ernst Barlach and Käthe Kollwitz exhibition in the Kunsthaus Apolda, which is only open until April 18, 2022, took me to Apolda today. The exhibition "Beyond the Limits of Existence" is very stirring and touching and unfortunately also provides parallels to the present day with the terrible war in Ukraine. In the Kunsthaus Apolda, very high-quality exhibitions are shown …

After work 🍂🍁☀️ oh how nice. 🤭😉 @Heike P. 🤗
Actually really tired 🥱 after the early shift... 🤪 Would you rather have an espresso and 20 min 😴 on the couch or just a small area, the fatigue round that was the question? 😊😅
Good espresso and couch are also available. 😁🙃😆

April 3, 2022,Sonntagsspaziergang in Apolda

After a cultural Saturday (Art House Apolda - Kähte Kollwitz exhibition/Luther Church - concert Johann Sebastian Bach) we enjoyed some fresh air in Apolda today.

In Apolda, you can take wonderful walks through old orchards, along streams, a spring and a small piece of the old town.

A really beautiful circular route. We parked at the beginning of Apolda coming from Jena at an allotment garden. From here you can either cross the street and get to the scout square. Or you can go left to the Bonifacius spring. My wife and I really enjoyed the hike. Very interesting and educational.🚶‍♀️🚶🍁🍂😀

First work, then ice cream!
(At least that's what I said today)
Before we had the delicious treat from the ice cream parlor, we strolled through the promenades of Apolda.
🍀Enjoying valuable time together 🥰

PS...André ate the two ice cream cones! 😄

Cozy Sunday round through Apolda's local recreation area: Schötener Promenade - Apple Plantation - Herressener Promenade 🙂😊☺️, can be done in any season. The funfair was secondary, we are past that age 😉. Next Saturday there is the closing fireworks 🎆, always worth it 🙃, unfortunately this time without us, we are away 🙁, small planning error 😅.
