EDITORS COMMENTS
The Barbarine: A Symbol of Saxon Switzerland - Circa 1905 The Barbarine, a free-standing rock formation, stands proudly in the German part of the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, serving as the iconic symbol of Saxon Switzerland. This unusual and striking natural phenomenon, with its vertical walls and narrow summit, has captivated visitors for centuries. First ascended on September 19, 1905, by a group of intrepid mountaineers, the Barbarine presented a formidable challenge to those seeking to reach its summit. The climbers, including Rudolf Fehrmann, Oliver Perry, and Smith, braved the vertigo-inducing heights and weathered conditions to make history. Located near the borough of Pfaffenstein, the Barbarine is part of the larger Pfaffenstein Massif, which also includes the famous rock formations of Pfaffendorf and Konigstein. The Elbe Sandstone Mountains, where the Barbarine resides, are a geological marvel, formed through the process of weathering and erosion over millions of years. The Barbarine's unique shape and historical significance make it a must-see destination for tourists and climbers alike. Its first ascent marked a milestone in the history of mountaineering in Germany and continues to inspire awe and admiration to this day. This photograph, taken circa 1905, captures the Barbarine in all its glory, with the climbers making their ascent, adding to the rich history of this natural wonder.
