In the spiritual history of the Aryan race in Europe, the worship of forests and trees played an important role. Because at the dawn of history, Europe was covered by huge rainforests, in which scattered scrubs must have looked like little islands in an ocean of greenery.
Until the first century before Christ, the Hercynian Forest stretched east of the Rhine into an infinite and unknown distance; The Germanic people whom Caesar inquired with said that they had traveled through the forest for two months, and had not seen its end.
According to many studies of the Teutonic words for „temple“, it seems likely that natural forests were also the oldest sanctuaries among the Germanic peoples. It is sufficiently proved that the worship of trees existed among all the great European branches of the Aryan race.

In 1848, Lord Bute inherited the Cardiff Castle in Wales. He hired the famous architect William Burges to remodel the castle, allowing him unlimited funds. In the Winter Smoking Room, which is located in the tower, images of Germanic Gods adorn stained glass windows. Here we have, in order, photos of the depictions of Mani, Tyr, Woden, Thor, Frigga, and Seater.
