This bog body probably dates from the 7th/8th Century. She is affectionately called Bernie. A special feature of Bernie is the very well-preserved woolen clothing, a colorful tunic with many patches wrapped in a large cape. Around his legs he wore the leg wraps, also known as gaiters, which were typical for this time. In addition to numerous physical influences such as healed wounds, but also sinus infections, etc., Bernie probably died of cancer. It is unclear why this corpse was not buried in a burial ground or cemetery, as is usually the case, but in the moor.

Was the first time in this place today. Even scary and instructive even after more than 1200 years

This moor landscape extends to the Eternal Sea and is a nature reserve. There is a lot of red deer and fallow deer to watch here. Not all paths are suitable for cycling, it is better to walk.
