The Windburg ramparts are a lookout point near Hubmersberg. On the ascent you can still see the remains of the ramparts of the Windburg, probably a prehistoric pear-shaped facility with a size of about 60m, the location of which is not very well chosen. The name Windburg was only given later by the population. A few meters after the entrance you stand on top of the Wachtfelsen, there is also an information board with a splendid view, albeit a smaller southwest section. There are 4 smaller caves under the rock terrace, the lookout point.
