Asset Overview
Primula veris - German named Himmelschhlüssel (Heaven's Key) - in the adjacent forest near the cemetery in Purkersdorf.
The cowslip is one of the first to indicate the beginning of spring with its bright yellow colour. The plant is considered a medicinal herb with its ingredients and has expectorant, diuretic, diaphoretic, calming and sleep-inducing effects. The name Heaven's Key, which has been documented since at least the 12th century, is probably connected with Peter and his key to the kingdom of heaven.
