Gelnhausen - Imperial Palace
Germany

The imperial palace Gelnhausen, also called Barbarossaburg, goes back to Emperor Friedrich I (Barbarossa) like the city Gelnhausen founded in 1170 and standing in close functional connection with it. The complex served to expand the Reich's property on the Via Regia between Frankfurt am Main and Leipzig.


The moated castle formerly surrounded by the Kinzig River was founded with 12,000 oak piles (pile foundation). It consists of a core castle and the outer castle, in which the estates of the castle men commissioned with the castle hat were formerly located. Today only parts of the complex remain, including the complete ring wall, the richly decorated courtyard façade of the palace and remains of the castle chapel. These parts are among the most important secular buildings of the Romanesque period in Central Europe.

More About Germany

Germany? Before the beginning there was Ginnungagap, an empty space of nothingness, filled with pure creative power. (Sort of like the inside of my head.)And it ends with Ragnarok, the twilight of the Gods. In between is much fighting, betrayal and romance. Just as a good Godly story should be.Heroes have their own graveyard called Valhalla. Unfortunately we cannot show you a panorama of it at this time, nor of the lovely Valkyries who are its escort service.Hail Odin, wandering God wielding wisdom and wand! Hail Freya, hail Tyr, hail Thor!Odin made the many lakes and the fish in them. In his traverses across the lands he caused there to be the Mulheim Bridge in Cologne, as did he make the Mercury fountain, Mercury being of his nature.But it is to the mighty Thor that the Hammering Man gives service.Between the time of the Nordic old ones and that of modern Frankfort there may have been a T.Rex or two on the scene. At least some mastodons for sure came through for lunch, then fell into tar pits to become fossils for us to find.And there we must leave you, O my most pure and holy children.Text by Steve Smith.
