Reppister Höhe Memorial and Viewpoint

Well-made, informative site about the Meuro open-cast mine. The towns of Sauo, Rauno and Reppist as well as Bückgen, which later became Großräschen-Süd, were completely excavated; boulders and metal plaques commemorate the towns. The Reppist open-cast mine viewing point is located on the 129-meter-high artificial hill on the land of the former village of Reppist.
