The gibberish is inspired by the Siobhán Donaghy song "Ghosts" (https://youtu.be/o5PMDae1tmM). I loved her album when it came out in 2007 (so 5 years ago 🥲) and I still do

Im #SchlossCorvey gibt es einige, wie hier im #Kaisersaal, wo die Äbte des Stifts Corvey als Reichsfürsten des Heiligen Römischen Reiches hohen Besuch empfingen. Heute wird er für Konzerte und Lesungen genutzt.

There's plenty at #Corvey Palace, like these #chairs in the Kaisersaal (Emperor's Hall), a ceremonial reception hall where the abbots of Corvey Abbey – acting as territorial princes of the Holy Roman Empire – received prestigious guests. Today, it is used for concerts and book readings.

The grave of German poet Hoffmann von Fallersleben at #CorveyPalace for #CemeterySunday. He penned several popular and timeless children's songs and the poem that later became the German national anthem.

A #LentenRose on the small cemetery of #Corvey Palace for #FlowerFriday, not far from the grave of German poet Hoffmann von Fallersleben.
He wrote several popular and timeless children's songs (we all know them, yet I had no idea they were all penned by him!) and the poem that became our national anthem.
What stuck with me, though, was that at 51, he married his 18-year old niece. 👀 She died on their 11th wedding anniversary, giving birth to their fourth child. This flower is for you, Ida! 🥀

A #haunted #library for #SpookySaturday 👻

(Yeah, ok, it's the venerable princely #Corvey library, one of the largest private #libraries in Germany. It houses one of the world's largest collections of Romantic literature and the largest collection in the world of "popular fiction in English between 1798 and 1834" – I bet there's a #spooky Gothic romance novel in there somewhere!)
