Turf Labyrinths

Once common throughout the British Isles and Germany, many turf labyrinths have been destroyed, but their designs are sometimes preserved in manuscripts and antiquarian texts. Labyrinthos has a considerable collection of these plans and engravings, along with plans of surviving labyrinths created by Jeff Saward. A selection of these are reproduced below, along with plans and photos of turf labyrinths in Germany.
