Art & taste - At dinner with king Laurin
One of the best sagas and legends of the Dolomites: the legend of King Laurin.
One of the most famous legend of the Dolomites is the one on the dwarf King Laurin and his beautiful rose garden.
As the king lost the battle against Dietrich von Bern he bewitched the garden, saying that nobody in future should ever be able to see the beauty of the rose garden, neither by day nor by night.
But he forgot the dusk and so the splendour of the garden can still be seen today when the mountain, which is called the “Rose garden” (“Rosengarten”) is hit by the last rays of the red sun just about to set.
