Nothing is forever

In the year 1124 A.D. , Bishop Otto of Bamberg started the building of the Castle of Griffen.
I  guess he meant it to last forever and a day. 
Today, a short 891 years later, however, it lies in ruins, a clear sign that "Nothing lasts Forever."


Framed by a field of clover in bloom
and a blue sky (with clouds),
what remains of the former castle
houses a restaurant popular by many visitors.
