"The hunting umbrella at Charlottenplatz dates back to the 18th century. Charlottenplatz was named after Friederike Charlotte von Hessen-Darmstadt ... The hunters were able to shoot wild boars that passed without being attacked.

The hunting umbrella is made of round stone blocks and flared with soil on the side. The wall is about 1.6 meters high and about 0.5 meters thick. There are three loopholes in the wall. "

The Jagdschirm at Charlottenplatz dates back to the 18th century. The Charlottenplatz was named after Friederike Charlotte of Hesse-Darmstadt. The hunting parapet resembles the ski-jump hunting shelters at the Kernschneise and the Landgrafeneck; near the Dianaburg. Through the loopholes, the hunters could shoot at passing wild boars; without being attacked yourself.

The hunting umbrella is made of natural stone blocks and bricked sideways with earth. The wall is about 1.6 meters high and about 0.5 meters thick. There are three loopholes in the wall.
