Menhirs, stone circles, and petroglyphs are captivating archaeological subjects that blend history and mystery. These ancient remnants of humanity offer glimpses into past cultures and their spiritual or societal practices. Photographers can capture the primal energy of these sites, enhancing their deeper significance through light and perspective.
If you travel to the large and long graves of the road of megalithic culture between Osnabrück and Oldenburg, there is a very special Early Stone Age construction near Hüven in Emsland: the Volbers Hünensteine (also called Hüven-Nord with the Sprockhoff no. 842). In June 1956, Lisa and Rudi, Karin's parents, who lived in Lahn at the time, were photographed here. We have recreated the photos and the comparison also shows the changes in the dolmens over the past 65 years.
