Abstract
Given a conformally nonflat Einstein spacetime we define a fibration over it. The fibres of this fibration are elliptic curves (2-dimensional tori) or their degenerate counterparts. Their topology depends on the algebraic type of the Weyl tensor of the Einstein metric. The fibration is a double branched cover of the bundle of null direction over the spacetime and is equipped with six linearly independent 1-forms which satisfy certain relatively simple system of equations.
