A #LentenRose on the small cemetery of #Corvey Palace for #FlowerFriday, not far from the grave of German poet Hoffmann von Fallersleben.
He wrote several popular and timeless children's songs (we all know them, yet I had no idea they were all penned by him!) and the poem that became our national anthem.
What stuck with me, though, was that at 51, he married his 18-year old niece. 👀 She died on their 11th wedding anniversary, giving birth to their fourth child. This flower is for you, Ida! 🥀

A delicate cluster of blooming flowers, featuring soft pink and cream-coloured petals, grows beside a small, decorative lantern in a tranquil cemetery setting. The slender green stems and leaves of the flowers contrast with the grey stone base of the lantern. The background reveals a peaceful, well-maintained garden with gravel paths, lush greenery, and a blurred view of a historic building, evoking a sense of calm and reflection.

A #SilentSunday at #Corvey Palace

#stillerSonntag #architecture #Architektur #Fenster #windows #FensterFreitag #WindowFriday #Schattenspiel #shadowPlay #SchlossCorvey #CorveyPalace

A long, dimly lit stone corridor with a row of arched windows on the right. Sunlight streams through the windows, casting bright, rectangular patterns on the tiled floor. The walls are a textured, off-white colour, and a row of small, warm-toned lamps hangs between the arches. On the left, several closed wooden doors are visible. In the distance, blurry figures are visible due to a long exposure. The ceiling has exposed beams, and the floor is made of large, dark grey square tiles.

#FotoVorschlag: Türgriffe // Door handles & door knobs

#Türklinken habe ich einige, aber die sind für den #Doorsday reserviert. Darum heute hier, ohne #Tür fotografiert, ein #Türgriff im Karolingischen #Westwerk der #Stiftskirche von #Corvey, UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe in Höxter. Und ein Best of #Türgriffe bzw. Türklinken aus Magdeburg, die ich schon mal gezeigt habe oder noch zeigen werde // I have several gorgeous door handles to show you, but it isn't #Doorsday yet. So here's a #doorHandle I photographed without its #door, from the Carolingian #Westwork of the Abbey #church of #Corvey, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in #Höxter. Plus a best of #doorHandles in Magdeburg I have already posted or am going to post at some point

A rectangular, weathered bronze door handle features a stylised fish. The fish's body is made up of a grid of raised diamond shapes. Its round eye is a small circle with a raised dot in the centre. The fish has a triangular tail and two fins, all with incised lines. The bronze has a slight verdigris patina. The image is a close-up, and the door handle appears to be mounted on a glass door.

A grid of six close-up images displays diverse, ornate door handles, all from old buildings in Magdeburg, Germany.

A #haunted #library for #SpookySaturday 👻

(Yeah, ok, it's the venerable princely #Corvey library, one of the largest private #libraries in Germany. It houses one of the world's largest collections of Romantic literature and the largest collection in the world of "popular fiction in English between 1798 and 1834" – I bet there's a #spooky Gothic romance novel in there somewhere!)

#dramatic #moody #ominous #Bibliothek #SchlossCorvey #CorveyPalace #Höxter

An ominous, high-angle shot of a dusty, antiquated library with two large wooden bookcases filled with books on either side. In the centre, a U-shaped wooden desk also holds books, with two chairs tucked in. Two tall windows illuminate the room from the back, flanking a large, dark wooden cabinet. A single, ornate chandelier hangs from the mottled, cloud-like ceiling. The walls are covered in patterned wallpaper.

Another #window of #CorveyPalace for #FensterFreitag. The walls may be faux marble, but the view is real! 😉

#WindowFriday #architecture #Architektur #Fenster #historicBuilding #Schloss #palace #SchlossCorvey #Corvey #Höxter #Weserbergland

A rectangular, tall, wooden-framed window with 12 panes looks out onto a sunlit, verdant landscape. Through the upper panes, a bright blue sky with scattered white clouds is visible. The lower panes frame a view of lush green trees, with a large, light-green tree dominating the right side. Beyond the trees, a golden field stretches towards a distant blue horizon line. The window is set within a dark grey, subtly patterned wall, with a sill that matches the wall's texture. The overall impression is one of a serene, pastoral view from inside a historical building.

Last post of the day – a #Doorsday/#FensterFreitag crossover from the Princely Abbey and Palace of #Corvey. It's the #Geweihgang, the long gallery (and believe me, it's really long) of #antlers.

An interior shot reveals a room with ornate wall decorations and a doorway leading to another space. The walls are panelled with faux marble in shades of beige and reddish-brown, framed by lighter grey marble-effect borders. Above the doorway, a pair of large deer antlers with the skull is mounted on a grey marbled section of the wall. Similar, smaller sets of antlers are mounted within framed sections on the left and right walls.
The doorway, painted a pale grey-blue, is slightly ajar, offering a view into a brighter room. This adjacent room has light wooden flooring and white walls. A large, multi-paned window with a curved top allows natural light to flood in. A single red chair sits near the window. A dark-framed artwork hangs on the far wall of the inner room.
The ceiling of the foreground room is off-white with decorative moulding. At the bottom of the walls, a band of grey marble-effect panelling runs along the baseboard.

A straight, grey tarmac road stretches into the distance, flanked by tall trees with reddish-brown leaves that form a canopy overhead. White lines mark the centre of the road. To the left of the road is a strip of green grass, and to the right, a vibrant yellow field of rapeseed. In the background, under a partly cloudy sky, are more green fields and a line of darker hills or trees on the horizon. The perspective is from the road surface, looking ahead.

Some #colours, I mean #flowers for #FlowerFriday💐

„Die Stunde ist gekommen aufzu...

Während wir durch die Bibliothek im Schloss Corvey stöberten, wurde im angrenzenden kleinen Konzertsaal scheinbar das Klavier gestimmt.

Habe versucht, die Stimmung in Bild und Ton aufzunehmen :-)

#Corvey

Die Bibliothek der Abtei beherbergt eine stattliche Anzahl historischer Bücher u.a. zu Geographie, Politik und Naturwissenschaften aus aller Welt.

Warum stehen die Bände der Deutschen Geschichte in Vitrine 184 auf dem Kopf? Das hat doch etwas zu bedeuten?!

#Corvey

Bei dem durchwachsenen Wetter haben wir heute das Schloss Corvey besucht. Diese Weltkulturerbe-Stätte bietet einen tollen Garten, das einzige erhaltene Bauwerk der Karolinger, eine phantastische Bibliothek und das Grab von Hoffmann von Fallersleben.
