Guided Story

Take a moment to look around you in the serene Tiefurt Park. Above you, the elegant Calliope statue by Martin Gottlieb Klauer stands proudly on a square pedestal. This figure represents the muse of epic poetry, a nod to the rich literary heritage of this area. Klauer drew inspiration from ancient mythology, capturing a sense of calm majesty that contrasts with the vibrant tales spun by poets of the time. To your north, you'll find 'Die Fischerin', another piece that adds to the park's artistic aura. Imagine the creative energy that once attracted Anna Amalia here, seeking the muses' inspiration.
