Swastika In A Pine Forest

This photo of 60 x 60 meter swastika that consisted of Larch trees in a Pine forest near the village of Zernikow (110 km Northeast of Berlin) was taken on November 14, 2000.

"It was only visible from the air a few weeks in the Spring and a few weeks in the Fall when Larch trees stood out in contract to the surrounding Pine trees.

These trees were planted in the 1930's by a local resident during Nazi times. They were largely forgotten until after the German reunification in 1992 when planes once again flew over the area.

Local forestry officials cut down 25 of the Larch trees after this photo appeared in several German tabloids".
