08 May 2021, Saxony-Anhalt, Wörlitz: The graduate restorer Kerstin Klein (l) and the sculptor Katharina Günther apply the last parts of rind boards and reeds to missing parts on the over 230-year-old bark hut in the Wörlitz Park. The small wooden house, also known as the Wurzelhütte, has been extensively restored in the last two years. The Borkenhäuschen served Prince Franz as a private bathhouse for changing clothes before swimming in Lake Wörlitz and is clad on the outside with gnarled oak trunks, slabs and bark. Inside, coffers of elm half-trunks and with hand-woven reed mats and rush braids adorn the walls and ceiling. The park was laid out in the second half of the 18th century by Prince Leopold Friedrich Franz von Anhalt-Dessau as an English garden kingdom. The landscape park near Dessau is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Photo: Waltraud Grubitzsch/dpa-Zentralbild/ZB
