Günther Aull headed the Elmstein Süd forestry office from 1962 to 1980 and promoted a. the recreational value of the forest entrusted to him. For example, the Geisbachweiher and leisure facilities (now expanded to the Geiswiese Biosphere Experience Camp) and the Schindhübelturm were built under his direction. In 2016 a memorial stone was placed next to the Schindhübelturm.
