The Semnones were an ancient Germanic tribe. They are said to have lived between the Elbe and Oder rivers. According to the Roman historian Tacitus (died A.D. 117) in his work titled Germania, the Semnones would gather, on a predetermined date, in a grove (pictured here) that had been dedicated by their ancestors. There they would sacrifice a human. Tacitus also wrote that anyone who entered the grove had to do so bound by chains, and so the grove was often called the Grove of Fetters. The grove is also mentioned in an eddic poem.
