Once around Walther's life: The 8 stations of the Walther von der Vogelweide Path. As versatile as his repertoire, so multifaceted was the person Walther von der Vogelweide. Therefore, it is worth taking a closer look at "the nightingale" and its time, a look at the becoming and being of Walther: at himself, his origins, his education, and his "job", at Minnesang and political propaganda, at his legacy and its political connotations. This themed path was realized around his presumed birthplace, in eight artistically designed path stations. The sculptural elements were developed in collaboration with land artist P. S. Feichter. A smartphone app enhances the experience with narrated texts and music.
