A Bavarian Mount Rushmore with the face of the “Kini” in the Rock of the Kampenwand? This is a spectacular Plan was now to the Public.

Aschau – Even the top of the rock robs the guests of the Chiemgau the breath – soon it could be a rock-hewn likeness of the “fairy-tale king” Ludwig II . the A joke? No! , according to a Royal secret society. And not only Aschaus tourism chief Herbert Reiter speechless. If the anniversary of the death of Ludwig II. around each year, the king’s loyal to the votive chapel in Berg come together, to scuba diving hooded figures: the “Guglmänner of His Majesty “.

Since the burial of the fairy tale king, you insist on the statement that The “Kini” is on that fateful 13. In June 1886 and not drowned, as it is officially called, but was shot and killed by the hand of Bismarck to close the loop-Prussia insidious. Now the secret wants to remind you of the merits of the Wittelsbacher’s with a spectacular Plan. At the camping Hiking in the Chiemgau, whose likeness will be carved out over a large area in the Rock. If a secret society shall be Public, he needs a mediator. In this case, Hans-Peter Huber from munsing, of the power of his veneration for the house of Wittelsbach has been no secret.

mediator Huber speaks for Guglmänner: “The perfect place for our peace-loving monarch”

“You came to me,” he says mysteriously. Whether he himself is a Guglmann , not he reveals. But he shares your basic views: For him, strong> Ludwig <II. a tragic Hero , who has pressed in vain against the militarisation of Germany by the Prussians. “He just wanted his people to rest. But the others did not want to,“ he says. In addition, Ludwig was a modern man, de r in Neuschwanstein castle “home office” have made. “And tourism, he has, by the construction of his castles anyway, boost is Second to none.” Which brings us back to the Kampenwand, the viewing platform over the lake, where many, frolicking and foreign tourists. Above a cross of the Bavarian soldiers who died in the First and Second world war stands. A year is held there in the summer, a memorial exhibition of the warriors and Soldiers camaraderie in the district.

These wars have been for the Guglmänner a result of the aggressive Prussian policy, the Ludwig’ve abhors. the “The perfect place for the image of our peace-loving monarch” , finds Huber. A model for the Kampenwand project Mount Rushmore is in the USA, where the President George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln. while staying at n in the Rock were tapped. “So similar to the Guglmänner want that too,” said Huber. The post card that have made the Guglmänner-in-hand work with scissors instead of Photoshop, a little misleading, because here the head is made of metal. “I’m sure there are artists that like to use a chisel to be found,” explains the loyalty to the king of the young man. Personally, he would want a Bavarian inventor designs a permanent artificial rainbow. the no, everything is not a joke.

The owner of the Kampenwand is to speak until the week after next again. In his office, it has kept the Whole thing a bad joke.

So it also goes the other, the experience of the plans of the dark men. Michael knight, from the Bavarian national Association for homeland care, laughs once, loudly, before stammering out a serious comment: “ The time for hero worship is over . And also: The camping Hiking is a unique natural monument, which can be destroyed in any case.“ In the municipality of Aschau , on the basis of the Kampenwand is the reactions, partly amused, partly dumbfounded.

mayor Simon Frank shares: “The simulated post card is managed, admittedly, quite good. In this digital work of art, it should remain, in my opinion, but also.“ The Kini in the Rock of the Kampenwand: it was with the gentle and sustainable tourism in Aschau not compatible. And tourism chief rider must collect only once before, he says. the “This is unimaginable.”
