Woodhenge (In Explore)

In the Meerser Koegriend along the Meuse, in the southeast of the Netherlands, there are 15 tree trunks suggesting that a forest has burned down here. The truth, however, is different.

The trees are 1400 to 1700 years old and are part of a new monument, Woodhenge. The trees came from under the gravel during excavations in Stevensweert. They symbolise the power of mother nature.
