A historic rail bus can be seen in the black-and-white photo waiting for departure in the covered station. It's a journey back in time; a private club occasionally offers commemorative rides on it.

Another beautiful shot in a room of the historic hunting lodge. It shows a breathtaking ceiling painting of a gathering of angels, some of whom are raining flowers and blossoms from the sky. This painting is surrounded by a balustrade made of stone pillars, against which smaller angels lean with their arms to watch the herons flying over the scene. On the wall directly below is an artistic stucco sculpture of a reclining woman in her robe. I captured this scene in this black and white photo. In the right-hand area, you can see an artistic depiction of falconry, which underlines the importance of this castle and the pastime it was for high society at the time.

Question: does the "minimalism" stereotypically attributed to Northern and Central Europe have any connections to Protestantism? I'm specifically thinking of the latter's aniconic/iconoclastic tendencies.
