It remains a balancing act

The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears it is true.

J. Robert Oppenheimer

This is a monument to honour the victims of violence, war, and persecution by Hubertus von der Goltz. That their precarious position is threatened can be seen by the spikes on either side (I have to go back and get a better photo).

Kapitelsaal der Wachenburg

This is the chapter house of the Wachenburg in Weinheim, a room where large meetings are held. Normally one finds such halls in church related buildings such as monastries or cathedrals but this chapter house is part of a castle built by an association of fraternities. It is used once a year by the association itself when the fraternity members have their annual meeting, the rest of the year it can be booked for events.
