    Hiking

    A beautiful building, unfortunately the Klause is permanently closed.

    This building was built in 1959 as an elementary school ("Walthari School"). In 1977, the Palatinate Forest Association Petersbächel-Gebüg took over the vacant school. Until 2022, the "Walthari-Klause" was a popular local for locals and hikers.
    What will happen to this building is up in the air, as the regional press wrote in January 2024; the search for a tenant has so far been unsuccessful.

    Hiking

    The "Waltharilied" goes back to an orally transmitted Germanic heroic epic that deals with Hagen von Tronje's tragic conflict between vassal loyalty to King Gunther of Worms and friend loyalty to his blood brother Walthari of Aquitaine.

    Addendum:
    The Walthari-Klause was temporarily closed in the summer of 2022 until new tenants are found.
