About

This page is about the movement of stones. It's about glaciers and humans, time and distance, weight and size.

It tells stories of specific erratic blocks in north germany and how the human interacted with them. How we tried to move them, to use them and how we gave them a symbolic and cultural meaning mostly based on monarchical national thinking.

The research of this website is not finished jet. There is more to the stories of the stones...
