It's Rosalia alpina, a long-horned wood-boring beetle in the family Cerambycidae. Appears to be declining in numbers - http://www.kerbtier.de/Pages/Themenseiten/enRosalia.html

p.s. - Please specify your geographic location when posting images for identification, as this helps in narrowing down possibilities...
