Hiking
The Saale makes an arc at this rocky outcrop. The whole area is full of historical testimonies. Here, for example, mining was tried. The former inner-German border runs here, along with the field railway and demolished villages, hamlets and factories.

If you are on the route of the Feldbahn between Blankenberg and Blankenstein, you will pass this memorial plaque.
It is reminiscent of the Katzenhammer prisoner-of-war camp near Blankenstein.
Five prisoners were also killed here.
