Historic Border Stones of Frau-Holle-Land

Highlight • Historical Site

The trail runs along the state border between Hesse and Lower Saxony, so you'll see a particularly large number of beautiful 19th-century border stones. These were erected by the predecessor states, the Electorate of Hesse (KFH) and the Kingdom of Hanover (KH).

Bridge Over the Endschlagbach

Highlight • Bridge

The Gläsnertal Archaeology Eco Trail has a distinctly Romanesque feel to it. 😉
Here begins a beautiful section of the trail on the state border between Hesse and Lower Saxony.
