Willow Chapel

Kaiserslautern, Germany

60 volunteers from the entire Palatinate region built a chapel from live willows. It is almost 30 meters long and 15 meters high and it is the “Green House of Worship”. Year after year, the willows come into leaf and form a thick natural roof.
Regular worship services are held here on Sundays; also, marriages and baptisms take place in this unique ambience.

An amazing spot, within that deep green bower. How cool and protected it must feel to sit there, enclosed and yet be able to look up into the sky. Lovely shot, intriguing setting. V
