Saint Anna


I got to know about the Monastery on Mount Saint Anna, when ecologists were protested against building a new motorway. Ecologists have lost their battle, so I could went back from Germany by this motorway. I turned into the road going to the Monastery for small pause in my trip. I visited the church with a sculpture of Saint Anna (known of its miracles) and Calvary of the Cross.

Ilmenau

I have never been to such a small German city like Ilmenau. We arrived there at night. Of course I couldn’t find my hotel. I stopped my car on some street in the center and got out the car. In the picture you can see the people who I met firstly. Of course somebody else (woman with a dog) showed me the way. I don’t know who made the sculpture, what it symbolize. It helped me to feel better in that night. In the empty city they surprisingly welcomed me.
