Not far from the Lister Tower is the wheel - one of the last giant historical labyrinths in Germany. There is no danger of getting lost here. The surface of the maze consists of grass and gravel, with a linden tree in the middle. It is assumed that the labyrinth is a place of worship from old Germanic times. Dance and spring games are said to have been held there in order to connect and reconcile with the forces of nature through various rituals.
