I rode/drove there a few times mainly for the Christmas market.
That area was my delivery area when I first went to work for UPS. I was the guy on foot in the Fußgängerzone, running back and forth to the truck with a two-wheeler piled high with packages.

Finding the location is super easy but finding its origin will be more difficult.

^The boulder is located in a forest in the western part of the Ruokolahti, Finland. Erratics are fun, clearly moved by the nearest glacier, somewhere 'upstream' from Ruokolahti.

Snæfellsjökull? In the background of the Ingjaldshóls Church near the village of Hellisandur (on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula), which modern tourists have dubbed “Angry Birds Church” because of the white red-billed birds diving in the vicinity of the church.

Denali is right, taken from the Denali National Park road from the bus turn around (road access to the the visitor center at Eielson is still blocked by a washout).

An underground entrance, designed by architect Zbigniew Peter Pininski in 1986, it welcomes passengers to the Bockenheimer Warte station, located next to the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in the heart of the German city of Frankfurt.

Pont de Singe, "Monkey Bridge", created by French artist Olivier Grossetête who used three enormous helium balloons to float a rope bridge over a lake in Tatton Park, Knutsford, England.

This is the Fire Wave. A rock formation located in the Valley of Fire in Nevada.

The Valley has been the location of many movies and TV shows.

It has another geological feature that is the location of the death and burial of an iconic fictitious character.

Question: What is that feature and who was buried there?
