An oak wheel stuffed with straw is set on fire and rolled down a hill to celebrate the Easter Wheel (Osterrad) tradition in certain parts of Germany such as in the Northern coast, in the Harz mountains, or in the Austrian alps. This event is believed to have originated from an old Heathen Tradition, where the “Osterrad” corresponds to the Sunwheel.
