Two similar signs, one in Freiburg at the restaurant "Storchen", the other in Colmar. Despite the different countries and languages, there's a lot of joint history. Nonetheless, there are differences that immediately let you recognize which shot is from Germany and which from France.

The Externsteine is a distinctive sandstone rock formation located in the Teutoburg Forest, in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. The formation consists of several tall, narrow columns of rock which rise abruptly from the surrounding wooded hills.
The site draws about a million visitors a year, for a variety of reasons. Most are tourists who come to admire the beauty of the majestic rock formations that jut out from the flat, forested landscape.
But it is not only a geological curiosity, Externsteine is also reputed to be an ancient and sacred palaeolithic worshiping ground, and an astronomical calendar. Therefore, Externsteine became a mecca for Neo-pagans, Neo-Nazis and neo-pagan-Nazis.
The pagan ceremonies held at Externsteine take place three times a year: on the longest day of the year (June 21), the shortest day of the year (December 21) and on Walpurgis Night (“Night of the Witches”) on April 30.
