Luisenburg Rock Labyrinth

The Luisenburg Rock Labyrinth ((ドイツ語:Luisenburg-Felsenlabyrinth)) is a felsenmeer made of granite blocks several metres across and is part of the ''Großes Labyrinth'' Nature Reserve near Wunsiedel in Germany. For a long time its formation was believed to have been caused by natural disasters such as earthquakes. Today it is known that processes such as weathering and erosion over a long period are much more likely to have been responsible for the formation of the rock labyrinth.
Goethe wrote in 1820
The well-rounded shapes of the individual blocks were formed by spheroidal weathering (''Wollsackverwitterung'') in the tropical, humid climate of the Cenozoic era. Over the course of time they were left behind as the ground around was eroded; they became unstable and began to shift. This resulted in the jumble of rocks with wild, romantic paths through the narrow clefts and steep steps.
== Tourism ==

The jumble of rocks (a blockfield) named after Queen Louise was already being exploited for tourism in the 18th century and it is also well-known today as a result of the natural amphitheatre surrounded by rocks as well as the annual Luisenburg Pageant that take place there.
The concept of opening it up and exploiting it was heavily influenced by the Society for the Portrayal of the History, Customs and Rights of the Fatherland (''Gesellschaft zur Aufklärung vaterländischer Geschichte, Sitte und Rechte'') established in Wunsiedel in 1784. The local townsfolk began around 1790 to turn the rocky area into a landscape garden. The first construction phase lasted until about 1800 and, referring to remnants of an ancient motte nearby, resulted in the name ''Luxburg'', which was changed in 1805 to ''Luisenburg''. Visitors to the site had to stoop or even crawl if they wanted to explore its natural beauty. For the nobility of the time this was a rare posture that for many of them gave it an additional charm. In 1805 the Prussian queen visited the prehistoric, natural wonder with her husband, Frederick William III and, totally spellbound, told her son about the experience. A second construction phase took place between 1811 and 1815. The Luisenburg developed into a jewel of civic culture and landscape architecture.
The terrain was used in 1794 for the singspiel ''Die kleine Ährenleserin'' by Johann Adam Hiller and Christian Felix Weiße.
