secret things announced.Hermann LonsOn the top of the Wietzer Berg with its idyllic heathland stands the great memorial stone for the Heath-Litter Hermann Löns. At the time of the great urbanization at the transition from the 19th century to the 20th century, the journalist and writer Hermann Löns wrote innumerable nature poems and several novels. His favorite landscape was the heathland and his endeavors made the Lüneburg Heath one of the first nature reserves in Germany.
