Very religious area. At the roadsides there are often field crosses, through which one shows God one's gratitude, e.g. that the harvest was good, or that someone from the family has become healthy again. Or one asks for his blessing this way.

Orchid forest doesn't quite fit the description. But if you replace orchids with Himalayan balsam, the description is accurate. Himalayan balsam – Wikipedia https://share.google/mmSSeQIC5i1wTfELt

"We manage a small, diverse mixed farm based on biodynamic agriculture. We began converting the entire farm and its land to biodynamic farming in May 2008 and have been a member of the Demeter Farming Association ever since. We have been certified organic since November 2009, and all of our food has been officially Demeter-certified since May 2010. Our farm is located near Vogt, between Wangen and Ravensburg, on the hilly edge of the Allgäu region. The farm buildings are sheltered by ancient linden trees, located on the nearby shore of the Holzmühleweiher pond. We manage 12 hectares of grassland, 8 hectares of arable land, and 4 hectares of forest. The meadows and pastures surrounding the farm serve as fodder for our Fleckvieh herd. In summer, they are grazed all day, and in winter, the aromatic hay from these meadows is fed in the barn. In addition to the cow herd, we also keep free-range pigs on our farm. Our chickens live in a mobile coop that allows them to peck, scratch, and roam the grassland all year round. We grow many different vegetables, potatoes, and grains in our fields.

Waldburg Castle. The Waldenburg region became a fief of the noble Hohenlohe family around 1250. The first documented mention of a castle dates back to 1253. Waldenburg was granted town rights as early as 1330. It was converted into a castle in the 16th century, although some of the changes were reversed in the 18th century. The building became the headquarters of one of the Hohenlohe lines in 1553. The keep, also known as the Männlesturm (Männles Tower), received its present appearance in 1576. Further structural alterations were carried out in the early 17th century, with Heinrich Schickhardt serving as an advisor. The castle stood empty from 1679 onwards, as the Hohenlohe-Waldenburg line died out. The castle church of St. Michael was built by master stucco worker Christian Dornacher in 1781 and 1782. Count Eberhard von Hohenlohe-Waldenburg had Pfedelbach Castle built from 1568 to 1572 on the walls of an older ministerial castle as a winter residence, as the climate in Pfedelbach was milder than that up in Waldenburg. In the 19th century, the castle was extensively renovated by a new Hohenlohe-Waldenburg line created through inheritance. The castle, along with almost 80 percent of the entire town area, was destroyed by artillery fire in 1945. Reconstruction took place from 1948 to 1963. Hans Gottfried von Stockhausen (* May 12, 1920 at Trendelburg Castle; † January 8, 2010 in Remshalden-Buoch) was a German stained-glass artist, painter, and draftsman. He became known primarily for his over 500 church windows and architectural works, both at home and abroad. Von Stockhausen maintained his studio at Waldenburg Castle, where he frequently exhibited his works to the public. Source: Wikipedia.
