Very interesting story.
The short detour with a small trail is worthwhile

Unfortunately I just drove past it without taking a picture, but it is a piece of history.

If you're ever at the Mengshäuser Kuppe and climbing the Heussner Tower, you should also visit the French Grave. A quiet, unspectacular spot nestled in the forest.
