Water Poet Trails: Stefan Andres Information Board

Highlight • Monument

Stefan Andres was born in 1906 in the valley of the little Dhron. He was one of the most famous authors of the post-war period. Stefan Andres died in Rome in 1970. In his time-critical works he warned against playing down the Nazi era during the German economic miracle. He vigorously advocated East-West understanding and the reunification of Germany: "Even at the risk that we may lose a lot of our prosperity ...", (1958). The demands he made at the time have not lost any of their problems. The author's early works are set in the home. His novel “The Invisible Wall” is about the construction of the Dhrontalsperre: “Who can decide whether the construction of a dam is a good or a bad thing?” He tells of the mills that are abandoned and given up because the water does she drove, In the Dhrontalsperre is dammed. He describes the fate of the expelled millers, the dramatic conflicts that arise from the clash between technology and landscape. The dam seems to have driven happiness out of the silent valley. Pains and joys become visible. Its curse thunders before the blessing of technology. The clash of the new with the old.
