Fischereichenweg, Footpath and forest road in Mitte, Germany.
Fischereichenweg is the forest path in the northern Eilenriede, the city forest of Hannover, that leads to Das Rad, a turf labyrinth of concentric grass and pebble circles around a central linden tree. Four routes run through it, one with a short loop straight to the tree, and a low circular wall encloses the whole layout. At the labyrinth entrance stands the Fischer oak, planted in 1882 in honour of court Kapellmeister Carl Ludwig Fischer.
The Fischereichenweg takes its name from the Fischer-Eiche, an oak planted in 1882 in honour of court Kapellmeister Carl Ludwig Fischer at the entrance of the lawn labyrinth Das Rad in the northern Eilenriede. The labyrinth itself was first recorded in Hanover's city chronicle in 1642, when young people danced around the central linden after walking the "Rad"; it stood at today's Neues Haus site until it was moved into the forest in 1932.
