About this listen
"Fundevogel" is a German fairy tale collected by the Brothers Grimm. The story follows a forester who finds a child in a tree and takes him home to raise with his daughter, Lina. The child is named Fundevogel, which means "foundling bird" because a bird had carried him away.
Fundevogel and Lina grow up together and fall in love. However, the forester's cook becomes jealous and tries to kill Fundevogel by boiling him in a kettle. Lina saves Fundevogel by turning him into a rose bush, and the two children escape.
The cook and the forester's servants pursue the children, but Lina and Fundevogel use their magical powers to transform themselves into a church and a chandelier, then a fishpond and a duck. The cook and the servants are unable to catch them, and Lina and Fundevogel live happily ever after.
The story of "Fundevogel" is a tale of transformation, love, and the power of magic. It carries themes of jealousy, greed, and the importance of loyalty.
