Very informative board. About the history of the Rhön. But especially the Celts. You should take 10 minutes to read the board.

In the following Latene period - around the last 400 years BC. BC - the Celts came to us, a people related to the Germanic peoples.
The people who were already there at that time are likely to have been absorbed by them.
The Celts also settled in small aristocratic lords in the lowlands.
But they built refuges on hills, into which they retreated in times of need.
Such a fortress made of Cyclops masonry (stone and wood) is located in Rehberg, erroneously called Schwedenschanze, on the west side of the village of Unsleben, and also on Eiersberg in the north of Unsleben in the municipality of Mittelstreu.
