Avenue of the Fountain Masters

Highlight • Trail

Inaugurated on March 31, 2024.

Along the Allee der Brunnenmeisters, some Apolda residents have immortalized themselves with tree plantings and associated plaques. When it's green and blooming, it's a joy to watch these different, rare species grow.

At the Herrenessener Bach

Highlight (Segment) • River

Just follow the avenue of the fountain masters along the Herrenessener Bach. Very nice to switch off. Depending on where you are coming from, you could walk through the apple orchard or along the Friedensteich to the Lohteich, through the Herrenessener Promenade.

The Lindwurm Song was written in the summer of 2012 by
Ruth-Barbara Schlenker, pastor in Niedertrebra near Apolda
● a proud, falling, and dying count
● a wayward horse
● a fair daughter and later bride
● the Edeiknabe, squire, and groom Veit
● two hideous lindworms
● an unsuccessful knight, an old hermit
● the inhabitants of Schöten joined in.
The carcasses of two lindworms – named War and Crime – have recently contaminated this richly blessed region of Thuringia in central Germany.

We set off optimistically in beautiful sunshine to do a longer walk. An unexpected meeting with a former colleague in her allotment and the long chat that ensued put a damper on our plans. The early disappearance of the sun and the knowledge that we still had to prepare something for our granddaughter's birthday party tomorrow forced us to take …

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. 😁🙃😆

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! 😄

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. 🤣

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 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 …

Such a working Wednesday 🙄...
My Wednesday today was what many people usually think of as Monday. 😉😅
Sometimes you can't breathe away as much as you'd like.
So I did a quick head-down-round and took a deep breath.
As it gets dark in a matter of seconds, I naturally went for a walk along the promenades of Apolda. 😌 …

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.🚶‍♀️🚶🍁🍂😀
