Hiking

Here is a bench with a beautiful view of Ruit. In the evening you have the sun in the back and the place is beautifully illuminated.

This memorial was designed in 1969 by the sculptor Volker Erhard in memory of the war victims. From here you have a very nice view of the village.

Hiking

The memorial by Ettlingen sculptor Volker Erhard, also known as Voré, was erected in 1969 by order of the municipality of Ruit to commemorate the victims of the wars. Unfortunately, the memorial has been increasingly vandalized in recent years, so that it is now secured by a construction fence.
