Galgenberg

Here, in earlier times, the villains, or the one held up for it, were hung up. Nevertheless, it seems so peaceful that it is remarkable. Left and right, there are plenty of ways and trails to let off steam.

Memorial to the Windecker HochgerichtExcerpt from Wikipedia:
As Windecker Hochgericht the Galgenberg (356.1 m above sea level) in the Nutscheid was used until the 19th century. By placing it directly on the then heavily frequented overland road foreign and dubious people should be deterred. The Galgenplatz "Windecks Court" is still a destination for hikers and historically interested. Only about 250 m east of it are three several hundred years old oaks.Source: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutscheid

Short stopover. The oak is a little hidden in the forest. Up the stairs! :-)

Historical review and short stop.

Great route and sights
