Weidendom Schlepzig, Living willow cathedral in Schlepzig, Germany.

The Weidendom spans 22 meters in width and reaches 11 meters in height, constructed entirely from interwoven willow branches and steel supports.

The construction of this botanical structure began in March 2004 under the guidance of Swiss architect Marcel Kalberer and opened to the public in May 2004.

The cathedral serves as a natural wedding venue where couples exchange vows beneath the living willow canopy along the banks of the Spree River.

The structure accommodates up to 100 people and remains accessible from April through October, with indoor alternatives available during inclement weather.

This living structure continues to evolve as the willow branches grow and interweave, creating new patterns in the architectural framework each season.
