P-Day Excursion

In February we took a P-day excursion to Bielefeld to see an exhibit of Emil Nolde, an early 20th century North German artist. On the way back we stopped by Detmold to see the Hermannsdenkmal(see bottom picture), which commemorates the victory by the Germanic tribes over the Roman legions in 9 AD, and the Externsteine which is an interesting rock formation that became a religious site in pre and post Christian times.
