Trendula Wooden Statue
Highlight • Monument
Mighty giants once lived in the mountains of the Reinhardswald between Diemel and the upper Weser. The most powerful was Kruko, who had built the Kruckenburg and fathered three daughters: Brama, Saba and Trendula.
After their father died, Brama and Saba adopted Christianity, but Trendula continued to be faithful to the pagan gods. She made life difficult for her sisters and bothered them. Brama wept so much day and night over her sister's injustice that she soon went blind. Because of her grief, she moved out of her father's castle and built the Bramburg herself on the opposite bank of the Weser.
Soon Saba of the evil sister Trendula was superfluous and built her own castle, the Sababurg. But she felt sorry for her blind sister Brama. Under cover of night and fog, she often visited them and returned home with the first light of the breaking day.
When Trendula found out about the visits, she became more and more envious, especially since she had been left alone by both sisters. So she decided to kill her sisters ...
After Saba was with her sister again, the envious Trendula assaulted her sister in the "murder chamber" near her father's castle and strangled her.
But the punishment followed and Trendula was struck by lightning. The funnel of the enormous impact is still visible today - the "wet cloudburst", the "water-green grave of the giantess Trendula" ...
