Landscape Symbols Author 1: Vicky (Moreno)
The Salamander Stadtpark is located in the center of Kornwestheim, across the City Hall. The historical and cultural meaning of the Salamander Enterprise donation for the creation of this park is huge, with some statues and inscriptions all over the park, inviting him to search the history of Kornwestheim more. The symbolism of this act is obvious. Salamander contributed to innovation giving thousands of working spaces, increasing the economy of the district, creating green infrastructure and its actions have an impact to the citizens till today.
Salamander Stadtpark in Korwestheim owns an artificial lake. The three landscape elements of this park: water, meadow and woodland are creating an interesting contrast in a harmonious way of nature. But especially water as a vivid element, has a very special quality in landscape design. Depending on the season it is representing freedom, family values, cultural and well-being activities, and more or less the feeling of equality. In winter when the lake freezes, in the eyes of many, prevails a harmonic sense of peace. In conclusion, water in the landscape is viewed as a symbol synomymous with development, economic progress, modernization and national prestige.

Landscape Symbols Auther 3: Nicole (Ho Ching Leung)
(48° 46' 30.732" N 9° 10' 40.068" E) Photo was taken in Schlossplatz, in the open space in one of the busiest shopping streets in Stuttgart. The landscape symbol identified is the graffiti on benches. Graffiti is not only perceived as a hip-hip culture but also a way for youngsters to express their opinions to the society in recent decades. It is a symbol of the integration of social democracy and public space.
(48° 46' 42.582" N 9° 10' 42.912" E) Photo was taken in Schlossplatz, Stuttgart. The photo symbolises human control over nature. Parts of the existing lawn were replaced with decorative flower beds as visual attractions to celebrate the upcoming Easter. It not only reflects the role of landscape in cultural celebrations, but also human’s manipulation to nature, questioning the degree of democracy of the landscape itself.
(48° 44' 42.588" N 9° 6' 9.34" E) Photo was taken in University of Stuttgart. The photo reflects how different users perceive the same piece of landscape and give different symbolic meanings to it. This bridge with love-locks might be a romantic place for couples but just a normal bridge for single people. It reflects that the unique symbolic meanings of each landscape subject to users’ definitions and perceptions.
